And as I feared, it went pear-shaped. I gave the second user root privileges, and the logged in as that user. I deleted the first user, but noticed that his $HOME had not been removed.
I activated root as a 'normal' user, logged in as root and then tried # rm -rf /export/home/john I got 'device busy'. Huh ??? I went down to init -1 and tried again on the console. Same story. I now have a virtually unusable laptop sitting here, and if I have to reinstall, it's gonna *really* piss me off, as I don't have an external CD drive, and last time, the colleague who lent me his took ten days to 'remember' to bring it in, and I had to install OpenSolaris during my lunch break. Could someone *please* tell me how to get rid of *ALL* users except root, and to have *NOTHING* in /export/home, so that I can create a user and start again? Or do I have to reinstall? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
