Got it working... 5/5 successful.
Uninstalled MySQL 5.5 and installed 5.1. Right off the bat things were looking much better - MySQL actually came with that "/lib/opt/" folder.
However then I ran into errors using the zlib that I was recently suggested trying.
I had to go back to the original zlib download from the original post, download that package even though it only contains a "zdll.lib" and not a "zlib.lib". Then I just renamed "zdll.lib" to "zlib.lib" and it started working fine. Using that other zlib that you suggested lerxst2112 was causing errors in zconf.h while compiling.
So my understanding is that part of my problem was that I accidentally downloaded a newer version of MySQL.
But another part of the problem is that the suggested zlib download has since changed and you actually need to rename the "zdll.lib" to "zlib.lib" in the lib folder, in order for it to work.
Thanks for all the help again.
