Multiple instances of mysql on same server - install issues

Greetings to all,

For testing purposes I am attempting to install multiple instances of mysql running as master slave on the same server.

All the references to doing this ( at least the ones I found ) dicuss using ./configure --prefix= so as to have multiple installs using different ports which I have done before way back in 4.xx days.

However 5.1 ( the version I need to use ) does not follow this practice. I have attempted creating versions of my.cf and restart existant server aiming at this new cf but I get mysqlmanager errors. I have attempted to use the parameters for mysql_install_db and this has created the new directories but I can not get a secondary mysql daemon running.

Can someone direct me to clear instructions on how to do this so that I can get my testing of master/slave replication up and running on one physical server.

I am doing all of this work on Centos 5.9

Thank you
