I just sent a note but here is more info. I was able to mysql_install_db
successfully. But when I run safe_mysqld  -- user=mysql & this
  is what appears in the err file

   030321 16:00:24  InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file
operation.
InnoDB: See http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html for installation help.
InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to
InnoDB: the directory.
InnoDB: File name ./ibdata1
InnoDB: Cannot continue operation.
030321 16:00:24  mysqld ended

 Any suggestions??? Thanks.
