MySQL Server Fails to Start on PowerPC Architecture

[jaytirth khairatkar]

I downloaded the source code of MySQL and compiled it according to the instructions.
Then, I in the /usr/local/mysql/bin folder I did ./mysqld_safe --user=root &
The mysql server started and closed immediately.

The p2020rdb.err reads
mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data
The InnoDB memory heap is disabled
Mutexes and rw_locks use GCC atomic builtins
Compressed tables use zlib 1.2.8
.
.
.
.
File './mysql-bin.000011' not found ( Errcode: 2)
Failed to open log (file './mysql-bin.000011', errno 2)
Could not open log file
Can't init tc log
Aborting

InnoDB: Starting Shutdown
InnoDB: Shutdown completed: log sequence number

I will greatly appreciate any help on this problem.
