    Hi
    I am new here so Hello to everyone in this community.
    I have used the awesome Perfect Server - Gentoo 2007.0
    tutorial for bringing up my local test server (for testing purposes
    of web pages I do for the living).
    And I did use newest Gentoo available (2008.0), the
    Stage 3 install-cd of course.
    I did _everything_ exactly the same way as this tutorial says.
    (hmmm, except that I'm using wireless usb dongle,
    but that is not the issue here).
    And everything went very well until I got stuck on Page 4,
    paragraph 11 MySQL where I got such errors

    I had to press ctrl+C here because * Stopping the server ... was everlasting. Then I did:

    Can Anyone of You could help me please with this ? :)
    I really have no idea what to do.
    Best regards

    By the way I'm over that issue now, I've managed to
    push things forward (to the next issue of course :D )
    Best regards

    No, but sometimes noone knows the answer. That happens from time to time. ;)

    if any1 have same error

    hey there
    you see.. linux allways talk with you :)

    he say:
    * You have already a MySQL database in place.
    * (///var/lib/mysql/*)
    * Please rename or delete it if you wish to replace it.

    so he mean's that in u're directory /var/lib/mysql/ you ALREADY have some database...
    so just do rm -rf /var/lib/mysql/*
    and try again :)
