As a really quick and dirty solution his will create the mysql user
for you (as root).
echo "mysql:*:74:74::0:0:MySQL Server:/var/empty:/usr/bin/false" |
niload passwd .
Don't forget the full stop at the end of that command.
If the group mysql doesn't exist either, then this will recreate it
(again, running this as root):
echo "mysql:*:74:" | niload group .
You might want to check what's happened to the user and groups with
id 74 before you do this.
