When I try to start the server with the following options
mysqld --chroot=/servers/mysql/  --user=mysql (options that are not
relevant)
I get an error
[1] 379
Fatal error: Can't change to run as user 'mysql' ;  Please check that the
user exists!
030128 13:02:21  Aborting
030128 13:02:21  ./mysqld: Shutdown Complete

but when I start the server without --chroot option it works fine. I tryed
to copy /etc/passwd
and /etc/shadow to /servers/mysql but it didn't work.
How can I start server with chroot option??
I'm running MySQL 3.23.53 compiled from source (installed in
/servers/mysql).
