If you get the binary precompiled versión (not download the source tree
!!!) dont have any problem is the best way to make this.

The binary precompiled version is very optimized and run perfect !!!!

Only download the precompiled version


   wget www.mysql.com/Downloads/MySQL-4.0/mysql-4.0.16.tar.gz
 (is a unreal path)

   tar zxvf mysql-4.0.16.tar.gz  (decompress)

   mv mysql-4.0.16 mysql

   cd mysql

Omit this steps

Continue here

   chown mysql.mysql /usr/local/mysql

   scripts/mysql_install_db  (install default database)

   Rename the 3.23.56 binaries to _old

   for file in *; do mv /usr/local/mysql/bin/$file
 /usr/bin/$file_old; done

   Make the links to the new binaries

   for file in *; do ln -s /usr/local/mysql/bin/$file
 /usr/bin/$file; done

   chown -R mysql.mysql /var/lib/mysql

   chmod 755 /var/lib/mysql

   Start the new engine

   /usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld &

   Press Ctrl + C

   Copy the new start script

   cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql

Un saludo, Danny
