The "Access denied" error means that the connection is fine, but after you connect, you cannot authenticate.
Please check the MySQL install documentation for user setup (if I recall correctly, you need to specify both user and host, like "root@localhost")
in a users table.

Apparantly the installation itself ignores the password it has just set. If that's the case, it's a huge bug from the people at MySQL.

Raghavan,
my experience about two months ago (same DB, same OS) was a quick
and easy installation process. And, according to the documentation
(see here), whether there is an initial password or not
depends on the installation procedure that you choose.
The documentation is, in my experience, accurate and detailed,
so you shouldn't have a problem reinstalling MySQL.
Good luck.
