Hi all,
I have installed mndk 10.1 official and created an account (except
root). I could login with my account, but the only available account
to login at the login window was my account. I don't know how can I
login as root ? In fact, the problem is even worse. I have deleted
that account too and now a window just ask me for password and nothing
is accepted. Noe my system is completely dangled thanks to mndk,
anybody help ? urgent...
Thanks,
Danesh
Just on the side here, if you are not comfortable with the command line
yet, you should not try to log in to a graphical environment as root.
With Mandrake, you do not need to, and this option has been disabled
starting from mdk9.2 I think. This is why you searched in vain for the
option in the graphical startup mode.
This does not mean that you don't have full control of your machine. It
just means that you have a buffer to absorb your initial mistakes, and
this is called a user account.
Using the info in all the above replies, you should be able to get a
user account back on its feet, which will enable you to perform
administrator level tasks through kdesu, sudo, etc.
