Ok, well... /var doesn't exist in my installation. I'm assuming one will be
created? Regardless, when I run ./bin/safe_mysqld, I still get:
touch: /usr/local/mysql/var/Host7.err: No such file or directory
chown: /usr/local/mysql/var/Host7.err: No such file or directory

There is no mysqld process running.
Doing an ls -l on my mysql folder indicates:

Is there something else I have to do yet?
