    Do you want the solution if MySQL 5.5 doesnot start on MAC OS 10.6

    Modify the mysql.server script file using the following command :
    sudo /Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server
    Locate the configuration defining the basedir and set the following :
    basedir=/usr/local/mysql
    datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data
    Save the file and start the mysql server in the system preferences or terminal.
