If you can't login with the root user, you can try resetting the root password.
You boot from the installation dvd en choose the rescue system. you mount the disk that contains the root "/" en you do a chroot to this mount. After the chroot you can use the passwd command to change the root password: for example: chccwdev -e 0.0.0200 mount /dev/dasda1 /mnt mount -o bind /proc /mnt/proc mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev chroot /mnt passwd Samir Reddahi Bernie Wu <[email protected]> Sent by: Linux on 390 Port <[email protected]> 04/06/2010 15:44 Please respond to Linux on 390 Port <[email protected]> To [email protected] cc Subject sles10-sp3 cannot login after a base install Hi Listers, What userid do I use to sign in after doing a base install of SLES10-SP3 from my 3270 session ?
