 * I thought I had seen a similar complaint, but could not find it today. Apologies
   if this has already been addressed…
    Wordpress version 1.5.2 (fresh download 
   from wordpress.org) on CentOS 4.2 with mysql-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1 and php-4.3.9-3.9
 * Running the install script (wp-admin/install.php) in the browser (Firefox 1.0.7)
   results in a displayed blank page. There are no errors, but also not the expected
   interaction (providing password).
 * Any help (or pointers to a previous resolution) would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

 * Again, I could not find the details, but I vaguely recall that someone mentioned
   that the newer versions of mysql and/or php were incompatible with wp 1.5.2
 * Am I hosed until a newer version of WP is available? I certainly do NOT want 
   to revert to earlier versions of mysql and php.
