Your shell printed "root #". safe_mysqld (running in the background)
printed the Starting... messages, followed by a newline. That puts
the cursor on the next line.
But your shell is still waiting for a new command. Just type it in.
Or hit Enter a few times to see that the shell is waiting for input.
thanks,

Try ls to see whether safe_mysqld is in the directory and the run:
Safe_mysqld &
Note! You have to be root to run the mysqld demon
