checksetup.pl should do this when you already have an admin account in your
database. Can you remove your 'bugs' database completely (or whatever you call
the database Bugzilla uses) and try running checksetup.pl again?

yup that did the trick. the weird thing is that the first time checksetup.pl
ran, it gave connection errors. anyway...
