i too am having the hostname error:
/usr/local/bin/mysql_install_db
Sorry, the host 'zteknofreak' could not be looked up.
Please configure the 'hostname' command to return a correct hostname.
If you want to solve this at a later stage, restart this script with
the --force option

first, why are you running that command? Oh, looking below, it looks like you are installing the port....

What does this command return? : hostname

Don't worry about /etc/resolv.conf until we know what hostname returns. Perhaps adding an entry in /etc/hosts is what you need to do. Put in the value returned by hostname and the IP address.

forgot to update, sorry 'bout that. working with friend, this is exactly what we did as a workaround. the problem is that in the port it does a hostname -s, which strips everything after the first '.' and then tries to do a hostname lookup on it, and promptly fails.
