Cannot restart mysql server.

Hi.

We have installed and setup a mysql server on a centos machine. It was working fine all along. Then we wanted the centos machine to boot to shell by default (earlier we booted into the gui). After this process (wherein we restarted the machine) the mysql service itself did not start.

I've tried doing the following:
---
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
---
It reports a failure to start. Went and read the logs (cat /var/log/mysqld.log) it reports something like the following:
---
090826 19:17:25 mysqld started
090826 19:17:25 [Warning] options --log-slow-admin-statements and --log-queries-not-using-indexes have no effect if --log-slow-queries is not set
090826 19:17:26 InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file operation.
InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to
InnoDB: the directory.
InnoDB: File name /mysql/Data/ibdata1
InnoDB: File operation call: 'create'.
InnoDB: Cannot continue operation.
090826 19:17:26 mysqld ended
---

How do I troubleshoot this?
