Assuming your slave is not usable by client programs now anyway and
you don't mind it being unusable for a while longer, you can restart
the slaving from scratch:

1. take a full mysqldump of the master, --with-master-data --flush-logs
2. drop your databases on the slave, stop slaving, and restore the dump
3. restart slaving on the slave using the master data in from the dump

(see the mysql docs on how to set up replication if you need more detail)
