This sounds very familiar. Though I think I was using Slackware installing from slack builds. My hand written notes say something about mysql_install_db --user=... Left the /var/lib/mysql/ with the wrong permissions. Or something. And something to do with running mysql_secure_installation instead.
Maybe that might help. It's been a while. And due to the evidence of my handwriting I'm afraid I appear to have been terribly, terribly, drunk.
