Well I made one of those mistakes only I can do, I was trying to figure out this whole mySQL thing when I had to set some new passwords for things I knew nothing about (like the mySQL root) so I set some passwords not even knowing what went to what and for some reason I made them all different from my normal passwords...and forgot them all. Now I've locked myself out of mySQL lol.

I was wondering if there was any way to completly remove mySQL, including the passwords. I tried to remove it with pkgtool however when I reinstalled it with swaret the passwords were still there.

looks like i was just running the wrong command to get into mysql...this is a very strange program lol. Anyway thanks anyway all.

If you ever run into this again, there's a way to start the mysqld so that it doesn't do any user authentication. It's a command line switch, so you should read the mysqld man page because I can't remember what it is exactly at the moment.
