am installing from the debian dvd 3.0r0 onto a brand new (empty) machine amd k7, 256mb, 60gb disk.
have set up partitions, etc. and got to the first reboot stage. after this reboot i expected installation to continue. however i get login: prompt. unfortunately i have not yet been asked for root password, or user name/password details tried booting the rescue system with root=/dev/hd2 init=/bin/sh this got me a # prompt i then type 'passwd' enter my root password twice, and got 'Authentication token maniputulation error' ! adduser david did not work either at this stage, as couldn't exec either 'groupadd' or 'groupdel' ! any ideas ? dave morgan -- http://www.eclipse.co.uk/morgad/index.html UKRA#1243 SWARM#0029 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
