Hi Chris,

   I suppose that gumby  , is your machine name .
      It seems from the messages that /usr/local/var  does not permits 
mysql daemon to create
      file.  you can chnage mode to 777 to the directory,

      and for host.frm  , you have to run 
/usr/local/mysql/scripts/mysql_install_db which will create mysql 
database which has all these tables.

Regards,
Bharat
