Everytime I try to access MySQL in terminal using the command
cd /usr/local/mysql/
sudo ./scripts/mysql_install_db
sudo chown -R mysql /usr/local/mysql
sudo ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql &
I get the following response in Terminal:
Installing all prepared tables
020922 0:10:05 ./bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server
to the right place for your system
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
This is done with:
./bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password'
./bin/mysqladmin -u root -h dsl-216-227-33-233.telocity.com -p password 'new-password'
See the manual for more instructions.
NOTE: If you are upgrading from a MySQL <= 3.22.10 you should run
the ./bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. Otherwise you will not be
able to use the new GRANT command!
You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd . ; ./bin/safe_mysqld &
You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench' directory:
cd sql-bench ; run-all-tests
Please report any problems with the ./bin/mysqlbug script!

I don't understand. Please help.

I can't see where exactly the problem is. Let's identify it! -
1.Just after the installation you cd to /usr/local/mysql/
2.You type "sudo ./scripts/mysql_install_db"
STOP!
Now you see the output you don't understand. It's identical to the output I see on my screen , except for the last line which mustn't be there.[Is it possible that you took the whole instruction for one single command?]
There is not much to understand: After step 2 you have MySQL's databases installed. And that's it.
Here is how I connect to mysql:
mysql -uroot -p<password>
Good luck!
