Sorry for the very late response, I'm just trying to catch up; we do install mysql servers using FAI, but our setup is pretty simple, to be honest. All we do is: - We have files/etc/mysql/debian.cnf/DB (with DB being the class used for the mysql servers) to fix Debian admin passwords - An additional script that is meant to be run upon the first is install which sets the root password simply using $ROOTCMD mysqladmin -u root password XXX and loads some data, sets privileges, prepares replication etc. using SQL commands.
