mysql -u root -p mysql
And put in your root password (when prompted) for the machine. The Connectiva installation may have initialized the mysql database with the machine's root password. If so follow the docs to change that, as it is not a good security measure to have services share the root passwd. Also, if that does not work then dig around for the script that initializes the mysql db and see if the mysql root password is in there.
Better to try a few things before you go and reinstall.
