But there isn't a my.cnf file in /etc/
if you want one, you need to create it. the package installs example
file that you can use.
In all my other mysql installs there has always been an /etc/my.cnf
after the installation but you are correct this can be created easily
enough but I think this represents a bigger problem.
Nor are there any files in:
[root@ftp ~]# ls /var/lib/mysql/
mysql test
[root@ftp ~]# ls /var/lib/mysql/mysql/
looks ok. at some time, you'll need to do some post-install tasks to
secure the server (mainly, set a password for the root user). see
mysql site or google...
The same directories on another mysql installation. These files are
there by "default". It appears to me this installation is not including
all the files it should
[root@postman ~]# ls /var/lib/mysql
ibdata1 ib_logfile0 ib_logfile1 mysql mysql.sock test
[root@postman ~]# ls /var/lib/mysql/mysql
columns_priv.frm help_category.frm help_topic.frm
time_zone.frm time_zone_transition.frm
columns_priv.MYD help_category.MYD help_topic.MYD
time_zone_leap_second.frm time_zone_transition.MYD
columns_priv.MYI help_category.MYI help_topic.MYI
time_zone_leap_second.MYD time_zone_transition.MYI
db.frm help_keyword.frm host.frm
time_zone_leap_second.MYI time_zone_transition_type.frm

An rpm query shows everything should be installed:
[root@ftp ~]# rpm -qa mysql
mysql-5.0.54-1.el4.centos
[root@ftp ~]# rpm -qa mysql*
mysqlclient14-4.1.22-1.el4s1.1
mysqlclient10-devel-3.23.58-9.2.c4
mysql-5.0.54-1.el4.centos
mysqlclient10-3.23.58-4.RHEL4.1
mysql-server-5.0.54-1.el4.centos
mysqlclient10-3.23.58-9.2.c4
mysql-libs-5.0.54-1.el4.centos
Trying to start mysql results in:
[root@ftp ~]# service mysqld start
Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon.

Thoughts?
is selinux enabled on your system? check /var/log/messages.
No selinux is not enabled:
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
# enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
# permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
# disabled - SELinux is fully disabled.
SELINUX=disabled
# SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are:
# targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected.
# strict - Full SELinux protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
