Hi all,
i am new to trisquel and currently stuck in a problem. I am unable to log
in, when i put in the correct password, the screen flickers
(as if trying to log in) and after two blob/bleep sounds (sound which is
usually associated with something wrong has
been typed in) it returns to the log in screen. I am able to go into guest
mode though.
(when i type in a wrong password, then i am shown invalid password message in
red, so there is no issue with correct password but issue with log in)
the following events took place in sequence before this problem arose :
- encrypted 1st partition of external hdd, copied data to it.
- encrypted 2nd partition of external hdd, WHILE IN THE PROCESS of copying
data to it, i tried to format partition 1 (mentioned above)
with encryption but got an error what disk cannot be unmounted as it is in
use. i clicked OK but the partition 1 did not reappear on explorer. The
copying process continued without interruption on partition 2
- after the copying got completed, i tried to safely eject the disk, but got
error that partition 1 was in use, although i could not see it being used for
anything.
- after waiting for a while i restarted the computer, and since then i cannot
log in.
Please help..
