Plesk upgrade to 8 - problem with mysql on FreeBSD (solution!)

During Plesk upgrade to version 8 on FreeBSD 5.4 there is a problem
with mysql. While doing this:
"===> Extracting distribution into /usr/local/psa directory..."
autoinstaller changes ownership of /usr/local/psa/mysql/var
to "root:root" and than mysql fails to start (cant' create pid file).
I solved it by changing it by hand during "Extracting distribution..."
- just after it has changed to "root:root" I did:
chown mysql:mysql /usr/local/psa/mysql/var
and than installation was ok ;)
