I installed phpadmin in cookie authentication mode. When I got the the login page, I was asked for the username and password, which I hadn't set up, so I didn't know what to put there and couldn't go any further... can you help?

There's not a specific "phpMyAdmin" password; it's the _MySQL_ account, which by default is username "root" with no password unless you set something different when installing MySQL. If you've forgotten it, you can reset it as described here: http://wiki.cihar.com/pma/FAQ_1.12
