Ainsi parla Otto Wyss le 315�me jour de l'an 2003:
Since neither Sarge-i386-1 nor Knoppix nor Morphix was usable to
install a base system I took out Debian-3.0r1 and cleanly installed
it. Now I'm at the first run but I'm stuck at the Login prompt, I
simply don't know the password for root!?!
Hu, well, you should have entered it during the installation. Don't remember ? Wow, Alzheimer is close ...
Can't this password just be written on the line before the Login?
Yes, of course. You can also send it to everyone on the Internet.
Another approach: echo "What's the password ?" | mail root ;)
Sarcasm and funny lines don't help at all whoever is trying to learn ! Those who have learned and know a lot now, please don't forget that, at some stage, you had this and other kind of questions and problems and they are all valid. No one is born with infinit wisdom - some will learn quicker then others, some will be more hardworking in learning then others - this is one of the main features of humanity - diference !
Be human, help and get helped ( and don't expect a reward for it ) !
John
