There isn't any information why firefox crashed. But if you have
configured the network and can access the internet, update firefox to
the latest version using the command:

# yum update firefox

In case you have not set the mysql password so far use the following command:

# mysqladmin -u root -p PASSWORD

where PASSWORD is the password you want to set for mysql

Also run

# mysqladmin -u root -h HOSTNAME -p PASSWORD

where HOSTNAME is your system's hostname
