Hi there,


Im having a problem with FD1.

The roots password has been changed & I cant reset it?

How can I fix this problem??


1. Boot from CD1
2. On boot prompt type: linux rescue
3. Follow the menu (language/keybord/)
4. On the console type: mount /dev/hda1 /mnt (assuming your root
   partition is on /dev/hda1)
5. type: chroot /mnt
6. type: passwd
7. leave chroot and rescue console with exit

Thanxs a million in advance
Dave
