mysqld doesn't have a -user parameter. You do, however want to start it as the user mysql:
Code:
su mysql -c '/usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld --skip-innodb'
There are various other options that you might need, depending on your setup, such as your base directory and location of your data directory. To see these, run:
Code:
/usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld --help | less
You may also need to edit /etc/my.cnf
