if you've downloaded the binary, then you don't need to configure, just like
the error says...
read this page,
http://www.mysql.com/doc/I/n/Installing_binary.html
then this one:

Subject: RE: Can anyone help me.. for install on a Freebsd 4.2 box..
Hi Ravi,
The problem I get is after the ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
There is a error at the "make" part.. it say:
one# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
NOTE: This is a MySQL binary distribution. It's ready to run, you don't
need to configure it!
To help you a bit, I am now going to create the needed MySQL databases
and start the MySQL server for you. If you run into any trouble, please
consult the MySQL manual, that you can find in the Docs directory.
Installing all prepared tables
To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server
to the right place for your system
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
This is done with:
./bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password'
./bin/mysqladmin -u root -h one.nasala.com -p password 'new-password'
See the manual for more instructions.
NOTE: If you are upgrading from a MySQL <= 3.22.10 you should run
the ./bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. Otherwise you will not be
able to use the new GRANT command!
You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd . ; ./bin/safe_mysqld &
You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench'
directory:
cd sql-bench ; run-all-tests
Please report any problems with the ./bin/mysqlbug script!
The latest information about MySQL is available on the web at
http://www.mysql.com
Support MySQL by buying support/licenses at https://order.mysql.com
Starting the mysqld server. You can test that it is up and running
with the command:
./bin/mysqladmin version
one# A mysqld process already exists
make
make: no target to make.

hi.
the easiest way would be to use the port.
otherwise ./configure (--with-some-options); make; make install and hope for
the best...
more realistically, do the commands one by one, and deal w/ the error
messages as they pop up.
is there specific information that is not on these pages
( http://www.mysql.com/doc/Q/u/Quick_install.html )
that you were looking for?
hth.
