1. If by mistake or unfortunately, the password is typed wrong two or three times at the time while PC restarts (the password set via BIOS), are there chances that the system may be locked or any other problem may come? and the same question for grub.conf encrypted passwords.
2. For disabling Ctrl+Alt+Del from restarting computer in Console mode, all we have to do is uncommenting the line:
ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r nowin the /etc/inittab file. But my /etc/inittab file yields the output:
*****
# inittab is only used by upstart for the default runlevel.
#
# ADDING OTHER CONFIGURATION HERE WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON YOUR SYSTEM.
#
# System initialization is started by /etc/event.d/rcS
#
# Individual runlevels are started by /etc/event.d/rc[0-6]
#
# Ctrl-Alt-Delete is handled by /etc/event.d/control-alt-
delete
#
# Terminal gettys (tty[1-6]) are handled by /etc/event.d/tty[1-6] and
# /etc/event.d/serial
#
# For information on how to write upstart event handlers, or how
# upstart works, see init(8), initctl(8), and events(5).
#
# Default runlevel. The runlevels used are:
# 0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
# 1 - Single user mode
# 2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
# 3 - Full multiuser mode
# 4 - unused
# 5 - X11
# 6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
#
id:5:initdefault:

where there is no line as '
ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r now'.So how could it be done?
thx.

I think some meaning is getting lost in translation.
Unless you're running out of free space, or updates take too long to
complete (as the computer has more files to compare), it's useful to
keep more kernels. Only the one that you booted from is used, at the
time.
