Hi  Ajay,

  I noted this with the  MySQL upgrade and I did add a bug report to 
  Redhat but I can not find it anywhere in bugzilla there now....

  In the init.d script there is a line that looks something like

  ping="mysqladmin ........" 

  if you add  a '-t 2' with in this command then you should hopefully
  have more success starting up MySQL.
