     I have a really long line that starts it.  Not sure what it all
does,
     only know that I just added the flag for it to write to disk every
few
     minutes.  Support mentioned mysqld_safe, but I tried to run it and
it
     would not run.

how are you starting MySQL? it comes with a script called mysqld_safe
and, as far as i remember, it will automatically restart the SQL daemon
when it goes down...somebody please correct me if i am wrong. if this is
the case, you could modify the script to send you an email or somethign
when the database goes down, but if the scripts is working correctly, it
should have it running again anyway
