Hi David, For the MySQL server to be correctly up and running you need to run mysql_install_db first. This should be done automatically by the smf script, but unfortunately not done correctly without the mysql user and group things you have done below. After you have created the correct directories with the right permissions you could try to re-enable the service (so the mysql_install_db are re-run).
If it still not running, could you post the actual output or error message you get, it could be easier to spot the actual error.
