Check your mysql error log, named 'yourhostname.err'  which will he
wherever the database files live - often /var/lib/mysql/ - for any errors
or oddities; the last lines should tell the tale.

Based on the error you may have more tables to repair or maybe a corrupt
innodb if you use that table type.  But the logs should give you some idea
of what to try next.  Bpaste.net if you'd like more eyes on them.

Hope you get it going again soon!
