>Description:
I've tried several times to get mysql to install on my linux box, to
no avail.  Everytime, the mysql_install_db script hangs when it tries
to run mysqld.  Running mysqld by hand hangs the same way as well.  I've
seen over a dozen reports of this on the mysql mailing list in the last
year and no real answers have ever been given.


------------- Output from mysql_install_db ----------------

[root]# scripts/mysql_install_db

------------- End ----------------

A quick google search on rt_sigsuspend indicates that the pthreads
library may be at fault.
