mysql -u root -p
grant select,insert,update,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';

If you use the above installation guide you may see some issues with timestamps with a date of 12/31/1969. I had to install mysqltuner and tweak my my.cnf file and haven't seen the issue happen since.
I had asked for help and cordel responded that it is probably an issue with mysql and he recommended that I tune mysql:
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=14410
TO DO THIS FIRST INSTALL mysqltuner:
sudo -i
apt-get install mysqltuner
STOP ZONEMINDER
/etc/init.d/zm stop
STOP MYSQL
/etc/init.d/mysql stop
EDIT YOUR my.cnf FILE
vi /etc/mysql/my.cnf
UNCOMMENT skip-innodb OR ADD IT IF IT IS NOT IN THERE
MAKE SURE THE THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS ARE SET:
key_buffer = 16M
max_allowed_packet = 32M
thread_stack = 128K
thread_cache_size = 8
query_cache_limit = 1M
query_cache_size = 24M
ADD THESE PARAMETERS:
tmp_table_size = 32M
max_heap_table_size = 16M
SAVE AND EXIT
START MYSQL
/etc/init.d/mysql start
START ZONEMINDER
/etc/init.d/zm start
IF YOU WANT TO TUNE YOUR OWN SYSTEM, LET YOUR SYSTEM RUN NORMALLY FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND THEN RUN:
mysqltuner
IT WILL ASK YOU FOR YOUR MYSQL ROOT USERNAME AND PASSWORD SO ENTER IT
ONCE YOU ENTER YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD IT WILL GIVE YOU SOME RECOMMENDATIONS. I WOULD GUESS THAT IF YOU APPLY THE ABOVE SETTINGS IT WILL NOT RECOMMEND ANY CHANGES.
You can disregard this:
General recommendations:
Enable the slow query log to troubleshoot bad queries
You will probably find that your system will run with greater efficiency
