[SOLVED]I installed mysqld and cannot start it

I downloaded mysql using "pacman -S mysql", and I downloaded mariadb, but I cannot start mysqld (systemctl start mysqld)... and when I run 'systemctl status mysqld.service':

[Note]InnoDB: Dumping buffer pool(s) not yet started
[Note]Plugin 'FEEDBACK' is disabled.
[ERROR] Could not open mysql.plugin table. Some plugins may not be loaded
[Note]Recovering after a crash using mysql-bin

Thanks! Running, "mysql_install_db --user=mysql --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql" fixed it
