Not long ago the power went out and so did my mysql server. I was running it as root 
and now it wont start:

root]# mysqld
Fatal error: Please read "Security" section of the manual to find out how to run 
mysqld as root!
021027 12:51:23  Aborting

021027 12:51:23  mysqld: Shutdown Complete

I need it to run now. How do you run it as root. Please dont tell me its insecure, I 
know it is, but it dosnt matter at the moment I just need it run now!!!. PLEASE help. 
I dont have time for to update user permissions for the tables,dbs etc. as I have 
scripts wich run via cron and update the database.

Thanks
