Here is my init.d script that worked:

"Haunted script" ? :))
I don't know what your environment is, but if You're using RHEL4, FC3,
CentOS, or something newer, the bundled MySQL (or to be specific :
MySQL's BDB engine) requires glibc to have NPTL support. Removing
/lib/tls effectively disables NPTL, which results in MySQL failed to start.
You can work around this problem by adding "skip-bdb" to your
/etc/my.cnf, or /var/lib/mysql/my.cnf, or any other config file and
startup script that MySQL reads during startup.
A better solution, in my oppinion, is to use Xen-specific glibc
<http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenSpecificGlibc>. This will solve
MySQL, DB4, and other problems caused by NPTL glibc.

Hi,
Just want to do a quick check before I spend hours debugging a 
problem. I have xen running and on the virtual server I have just 
installed the latest rpm from Centos (the guest and main os) from 
mysqld. When I went to start it, it fall over and give no error. 
Any ideas, do I need to do anything extra for the xen platform, I 
presume not 
Mark
