Okay, we have a little progress... If I start the MySQL daemon with the --skip-grant-tables option, everything works fine, thus:
mysqld_safe --user=mysql --skip-grant-tables & But, I shouldn't have to do this, right? So, what I need is some advice from someone who is more up to speed on MySQL than me (not a difficult thing, I expect), who can advise me on what I need to do to fix the grant tables issue.
