Problems Creating Grant Tables

[david]

>Description:

I'm running yellow dog linux for PPC; I've installed MySQL many times, but on Yellow Dog,
the mysql_install_db script dies saying that the grant tables are invalid.

>How-To-Repeat:

Is repeatable.

>Fix:

I don't know...sucks, because I'd like to get MySQL up.
