There is an error which I encountered and overcame while installing mysql
which I suggest needs better coverage in the MySql manual.
Its caused by the default ownership on <datadir>/mysql being incorrect, and
causes an error message like: "Cant find host.frm" in the log. A fix that
worked for me is:
cd /var/lib/mysql
chown -R mysql.mysql ./*
A quick search at google ("cant find host.frm") uncovered millions of people
having the same trouble, eg:

Its not an isolated or rare problem and needs to go into the manual or
install script ASAP.

Ben
