That's presuming there isn't a custom location defined in the my.cnf in which case there's a datadir= reference inside which
will point to the location always.

He will also want to remove the init script (most likely usr/local/etc/rc.d or unlikely /etc/rc.d) and the mysql_server_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf
