[0] IIRC, when you start up the mysql daemon for the first time, it asks

root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx using /usr/bin/mysqladmin. If you haven't done very
much you might be lucky and find that command, including the password
you set, in your bash history.
The confusion comes from the fact that the user `root` on a system is
a user that has access to everything, while this is not true for a user
`root` in MySQL.
There the user can be anybody, including `root` or `mysql_root` or
`anything_you_desire` and there has to be no relation perse between the
users on the system and the users in MySQL.
Even worse is that MySQL can work perfectly without the yser 'root' in
MySQL and on some places I read that having 'root' in MySQL could be a
security problem.
Setting MySQL up is not the most logical thing to do. Hence bug #347149
Took me a long time to grasp that as well.

In my opinion if you have bugs down there that are so bad
you need to use a pesticide, you're not gonna get laid anyway.
