Hello-
You need to place mysqld in the background by adding a & after the
command. Something like this:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld &
As to the problem after it starts mysqld in the foreground, have you tried
CTRL-C? Otherwise try going to a different console with ALT-F2, ALT-F3,
etc. Depending on how you have your linux box setup, you may have another
tty available and could login through that on the console.
Hope that helps.
