I have also had some weird problems with mysql. One of those problem was
that after installing mysql without any apparent error, there was mo
/var/lib/mysql. Check this one.

Also, you may get into problems if you have not created /etc/my.cnf.

What I now do and always works it installing from the RPMs obtained at
mysql.com. int the following order.

rmp -i MySQL-client-xxxxx.rpm
rpm -i MySQL-4.0.9-xxxx.rpm

It used to work installing both RPM at the same time, but for some
reason it doesn't work this way any more.
