well, i see a lot of error i can't explain

how many users do you have?

i would try to purge the whole "mysql" folder after stop the service and 
fire "mysql_install_db" to re-create the mysql-database or even go so 
far to configure mysqld for a different datadir, initialize it there and 
replace the "mysql" folder with the so new created

on any of my setups the whole "mysql" database is MyISAM and so table 
spaces should not matter, not sure if maraidb switched also to "innodb" 
as default engine

in doubt drop the whole database from your current instance runnign with 
"skip-grant" before stop it to get rid of tablespace rferences and at 
least for the fresh instance "default-storage-engine = myisam"

that way you should be able to merge the new created mysql-database with 
your current setup
