Thanks for the idea - I had a look for mysql.sock, but it was already
gone (I think the startup script must have deleted it)
For the record, to get mysqld to start again we had to run the startup
command from the mysql user account. The linux startup script runs as
root, it calls safe_mysqld,
Did you try deleting the mysql.sock before starting the server?
fsck seems to have changed its file type.
