[mythtvnz] Fwd: Problem with full disk

OK - sorry for sending out panic requests prematurely, I have managed to fix 
it all on my own (found a backup of the mysql.txt with the correct password). 
No idea what actually happened, but can only suspect bizarre disk failure.

I've made some progress (new disk) and now have everything working *except* 
that the mysql.txt file has been overwritten (due to the front end runing 
first-time setup again) and I was not able to recover my backup (seems to be 
the one thing that got trashed). Is there any way to recover the randomly 
generated mysql database connection password from the database itself?
