Error running on Yellow Dog Linux(ppc)

[scott]

>Description:
 After compiling with no apparent problems, I ran bin/mysql_install_db and
get the following errors:
Creating db table
Creating host table
Creating user table
Creating func table
Creating tables_priv table
Creating columns_priv table
ERROR: 1033  Incorrect information in file: './mysql/db.frm'

>How-To-Repeat:
mysql.server start gives:
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/var
mysqld daemon ended
the log file says:
990425 22:40:43  /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld: Incorrect information in file:
 './mysql/host.frm'
