tried to install mysql. then my system hangs.


so i tried to install mysql-server5.0 from testing.
this is what happens:

Setting up mysql-server-5.0 (5.0.38-1) ...
Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld.

and then nothing. i read some prople had the same problem ( http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?p=68436 ) but there advice with replacing testing in sources.conf with etch and running apt-get update dosent work. every time i try to either remove or install or --fix-broken it just says the same:

Setting up mysql-server-5.0 (5.0.38-1) ...
Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld.

and then hags for 10 mins untill i decide to stop it.
any ideas?
