Dear Sir,
I did all the steps to compile the code i.e. 

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql 
--with-named-curses-libs=/lib/libncurses.so.5.2

make 

make install

scripts/mysql_install_db

and then I tried mysqld --user=root then it gave the following error 
message. 



Cannot initialize InnoDB as 'innodb_data_file_path' is not set.
If you do not want to use transactional InnoDB tables, add a line
skip-innodb
to the [mysqld] section of init parameters in your my.cnf
or my.ini. If you want to use InnoDB tables, add for example,
innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:30M
But to get good performance you should adjust for your hardware
the InnoDB startup options listed in section 2 at
http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html
020528 16:39:02  mysqld: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist






Please help me resolve it.

I don't know where to make changes and which directory to create.If I have 
not done anything please inform me.  

Note: I tried to compile it 5-7 times so I did the following steps before 
compiling each time 

rm config.cache

make clean


Waiting for an eager response.
