  uname -a
 
  Does it show kernel 2.2.14? If yes, upgrade the kernel. SuSE introduced
a
  special safety feature into their 2.2.14 kernel that makes our binary
  coredump right away. They got rid of it it later versions.
 
  And while I am on the subject - we are aware of an I/O bug in 2.2.14
 kernel

  even without the special safety patch from SuSE) that make MySQL
corrupt
  tables under heavy load. Two of our users were running 2.2.14 kernel and
 were
  getting their tables randomly corrupted. The problems went away after
 upgrade
  to 2.2.10.
 
  So if you are running 2.2.14 SuSE kernel, you have two reasons to
upgrade.

  No, that is not the same problem. You were getting a segfault. If it
 cannot
  find datadir, start debugging the start-up script - read the error log
 then
  go from there.
