mysqld error on startup

OK. I admit. I should probably have left well alone, but I wanted to move
the installed location of mySQL. This all seemed to go OK, but when I moved
from something like:

/home/rob/mySQL/mysql-max-3.23.55-pc-linux-i686/bin

to /mysql

The when I try to startup the daemon I get an error

Can't find message file /usr/local/mysql/share/english/errmsg.sys

Now as far as I know I've never had this directory, or this problem. I can
start using ./bin/safe_mysqld & and everything seems to work OK. To further
complicate matters I also downloaded and installed 4.1 and the same happens
(it wan't an attempt to fix the problem, just something I needed to do)

When I try to find the settings file, (since I'd also like to change the
data directory location) which I thought was called my.cnf, then I can't
find one. Any idea what's happening?

Cheers

Rob
