Fix your config files as the messages indicate.

No one can help if you don't post enough information. Since it's complaining about the syntax in your config file you will need to post your config file.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

That first [mysqld] section is garbage.
I suggest reading the documentation at
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/ that covers the configf files.
