Reload of sql dump file failed (2 replies)

Hi,

I created a SQL dump using "mysqldump --all-databases --add-drop-database" and transferred it to a backup server. When I tried to import it using the mysql command it failed during the drop of the "mysql" schema leaving that schema empty. Before I could recreate it the mysqld process failed and now it won't start up again as it says it needs the mysql.priv table to start up.

How can I recover from this?

I am using MySQL 5.5.23 on RedHat Linux 6.

Thanks,
Damien.
