Just read this message and do what it tells you to do.
I is simple
cd /usr/local/mysql/
./bin/safe_mysqld &
and that is it

you should use package for your distro or create scripts in /etc/init.d
maybe you should take existing ones for your distro and just use them -
they should work with any version of mysql you have :-)
