Of course, there is no root password, so whatever you type it replies "Login incorrect." -- Aaron Swartz: http://www.aaronsw.com/ --------------------------------------- Received: (at 381-done) by bugs.lnx-bbc.org; 9 Jun 2003 19:32:22 +0000 >From [email protected] Mon Jun 09 12:32:21 2003 Received: from vorpal.notabug.com ([63.149.73.20] ident=qmailr) by gargoyle.lnx-bbc.org with smtp (Exim 3.35 #1 (Debian)) id 19PSNR-0003K8-00 for <[email protected]>; Mon, 09 Jun 2003 12:32:21 -0700 Received: (qmail 6448 invoked from network); 9 Jun 2003 19:37:18 -0000 Received: from 12-207-74-63.client.attbi.com (HELO aaronsw.com) (12.207.74.63) by 0 with SMTP; 9 Jun 2003 19:37:18 -0000 Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2003 14:37:16 -0500 Subject: Re: bug#381: automatic e2fsck asks for nonexistent root password Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v552) From: Aaron Swartz <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit In-Reply-To: <[email protected]> Message-Id: <[email protected]> X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.552) Sorry, I was switching the monitor back and forth between two machines and got confused about which one was booting the LNX-BBC.
