Unfortunately didn't solve it for me. :( I tried copying
/usr/share/mysql/my-medium.cnf to /etc/my.cnf and restarting... same
behavior. Damn, I was looking forward to going out celebrating :-).

root       711     1  0 14:20 ?        00:00:00 sh /usr/bin/safe_mysqld --
mysql      743   711  0 14:20 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/mysqld --
mysql      775   743  0 14:20 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/mysqld --
mysql      776   775  0 14:20 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/mysqld --

Yep... I opened it up in absolute desperation to try and get it to work.

Thanks for the suggestion!
Anyone with any other thoughts?

Mike
