What should you do if you forget your root password for MySQL?
(a) Go to get a root canal.
(b) You have to re-install MySQL with a new password.
(c) You better hope you wrote it on a Post-It, because there is no way to recover or change the password.
(d) Call the GeekSquad to help.
(e) In Linux you can run MySQL in 'safe mode' (which doesn't require a password to login) to reset your password.
