Here's a small script to use for automaticly starting the mysqld demaon. Cut and Past 
it into a file and call it mysqld then save it in the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory. Upon 
reboot you should see that you mysql server is up and running ( use ps -A as root and 
look for the mysqld pid's). As for using mysqld start to start the server manualy 
won't work use safe_mysqld & .

#!/bin/sh
# description: mysql
# chkconfig: 2345 99 00

case "$1" in
'start')
        /usr/local/share/mysql/mysql.server start
        touch /var/lock/subsys/mysqld
        ;;
'stop')
        /usr/local/share/mysql/mysql.server stop
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop }"
        ;;
esac
exit 0
