Sounds like you may have been bitten by the bug where the entered installation password is encrypted incorrectly, thus preventing a login. Follow the instructions in the link posted earlier: http://en.opensuse.org/Recover_Root_Password Just note you'll almost certainly have to follow the INIT or /bin/bash mode idea. Another way is to just boot off a live CD and mount the filesystem containing the boot partition and edit /etc/shadow that way. Do you, perchance, use the XFS filesystem? I've heard that is one culprit in this problem. -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) Linux Brain Dump - Linux Notes, HOWTOs and Tutorials: http://www.linuxbraindump.org Daemon Dancing in the Dark, an Open OS weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
