Hi,
Your error message
khanstation# scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql
Installing all prepared tables
ld.so.1: ./bin/mysqld: fatal: libz.so.1: open failed: No such file or
directory <--
means you don't have zlib installed or you don't have it in your
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You can put in into your default path by using the crle
command (man crle) and you can get this from http://www.sunfreeware.com
if you don't have it installed.
I notice you had --with-named-z-libs=no, try taking this out and letting
./configure find out where the z libraries are. The definition for this
option is :
--with-named-z-libs=ARG
Use specified zlib libraries instead of
those automatically found by configure.
and it is probably looking for a path called "no". If you need to
disable it, then try using --without-named-z-libs (I may be wrong here
but that is my reading of the configure --help screen) or leave it out
altogether.

Subject: Error while running mysql_install_db on Solaris 8
Please see the attached output of the bug report and an output file of
the messages that came out in the screen on Sun Solaris 8 while running
the mysql_install_db for MySQL version 4,1.14, 64 bit. I got the same
message for 32 bit version also. I tried MySQL version 4,1.12, 64 bit
and 32 bit all failed with the same message and in every case there was
no log file in mysql/data directory.
Please check. If you need further information please let me know.
Thanks.
