'slimserver' user is probably unknown since the installation of
slimserver never succesfully finished. As bpa said, yuu must solve the
mysql installation issue first. Whether you are using ss sql or system
sql should not affect your current problems. But mysql needs to be
successfully installed since the slimsever package depends on it.

When you try to start mysqld, does 'syslog' or 'messages' (in /var/log)
record any useful info? I got to go, but you could try google for the
mysql issue on etch. Perhaps it's an issue others have had.
