You will need to download the tarball or the source RPM. I recently downloaded the tarball on my RH6.2 Server and after a few stumbles it is up and running I am going through a few tutorials now.
After you download that if you downloaded it to a windows PC you will need to convert it to a binary file and then ftp to your linux box if it is not on the same PC as your windows. Then from there you will have to run configure, make , make install, scripts/mysql_install_db,mysql_safe and then like the instructions suggests to put the terminating and shutdown commands so that when you shutdown the PC or server that it perfoms a soft shutdown of the database. Then after that just write some sql and the world is yours...
