My (Jaunty) /etc/rc2.d looks like this as far as mysql is concerned:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 2009-01-14 17:44 S17mysql-ndb-mgm ->
../init.d/mysql-ndb-mgm
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2009-01-14 17:44 S18mysql-ndb ->
../init.d/mysql-ndb
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2009-01-14 17:44 S19mysql -> ../init.d/mysql
It occurs to me that it could be starting up and then failing on account
of something else not being ready that it needs.
That said, I don't know a great deal about mysql or its dependencies, so
it's purely guesswork based on the fact that it starts okay manually
after the machine has booted.
