If you want a master<->master setup, you'll need MySQL cluster. No DRBD is needed. If you want a master->many slaves, you can just use MySQL replication. No DRBD is needed. If you want a master / stand-by master setup, you can use DRBD to replicate /var/lib/mysql. Only one machine can ever have /var/lib/mysql mounted at one time and therefore, only one machine can be the master at a time. This should work fine.
