I couldn't tell from your message: which did you run without sudo -- mysqld_safe or mysql_install_db? As far as I know, you should run both commands with sudo -- the former should run as root while the latter should run as the mysql user -- so I'm not surprised you're running into trouble if you don't do this.

Your patch just changes a "mkdir" into a "mkdir -p", which would create intermediate directories. I do not see how this would relate to your permissions issues. However, this may be a useful patch generally, which you should feel free to file in the [http://bugs.mysql.com/ MySQL issue tracker]. sry i didnt tell the thing clearly. It was, when i execute the first step mysql_install_db,i forgot to do it with sudo permission,but i can do it,and tells nothing wrong.but when i execute the 2nd step:mysqld_safe,it'll always tells that cant do it,it didnt create all file and dirs correctly, especially sub dir. so i need to mkdir. i hope it can be much better and make sub dir automaticly. so i change it from mkdir to mkdir -p.
