First step of running the PHP install script, and I get this:

You must have PHP mysqli extension loaded to continue with the installation.

I am using openSUSE 11.1, PHP 5.2.9, MySQL 5.1.49, Apache 2.2.11

My PHP configure command

'./configure' '--with-gd' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/' '--with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config' '--with-curl=/usr/bin/curl' '--with-xsl' '--with-imap' '--with-imap-ssl'

And looking at phpinfo I can see that mysqli is there:

mysqli
MysqlI Support  enabled
Client API library version      5.1.49
Client API header version       5.1.49
MYSQLI_SOCKET   /tmp/mysql.sock
...

Any ideas?

This can be ignored. All fixed up. Don't remember how I fixed it though, sorry.
