Hi,

the 'duplicate column' errors come from mysql_fix_privilege_tables.sql
and are in fact harmless (see https://bugzilla.novell.com/228248 , fixed
in 10.3). However, it seems that the init script thinks that something
failed during the upgrade :-(. Could you try

  # touch /var/lib/mysql/.run-mysql_upgrade
  # rcmysql restart

? Also please file a bugreport and assign it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm
going to try it myself.

thanks,
Michal
