Example: I run a bunch of OpenBSD and FreeBSD systems, and the Linux binaries won't work on them (not unless I do some emulation). I find it easiest to download the source, uncompress it, and then run the following set of commands: ./configure [any options such as ssl] make all make install /usr/local/bin/mysql_install_db then I log in and set the root password (can be done in mysqladmin I know, but there's normally other things I want to do without having to log in again). Those stages usually work on *BSD and Linux. Posting your OS, version of download, will be very helpful. There's also a section about incompatible versions of libc (see above) with MySQL, consider checking the version of libc that you have against what the MySQL download page says.
