Binary package hint: grub
Start your machine, boot in recovery mode choose root shell (the last choice,
so it just drops the user to root shell directly without any kind of
authentication.
I report this bug after every distro upgrade, their must a permenant solution
for it.
It would be a good idea to keep this bug kept open as a reminder, and i'll
update it after every new alpha release(GW).
Regards.
