Answer

If there is no root user in the mysql.user table, you can create it yourself.

These errors in the log are about missing or corrupted system tables in the mysql database. Did you run mysql_install_db script at all? If you did, perhaps your mysql database is incomplete or corrupted. Try to rename it and run mysql_install_db script again.
