Mount the root filesystem from a rescue disk or install image mkdir /tmp/foo mount /dev/<drive> /tmp/foo

Be sure to re-set your root password ASAP. :::: Prior to now, Lorenzo De Vito wrote ::::::: :: :: But I don't know how can I login if it don't accept any name :: :: :: >On Sat, Mar 24, 2001 at 03:43:07PM +0100, Lorenzo De Vito wrote: :: >> I'm disperate, after i've installed jdk I try to login (also with :: >> root) but I see the following message : :: >> :: >> bash: EOF1: command not found :: >> bash: /tmp/buildroot-jdk/etc/profile.d/jdk.csh: No such file or directory :: >> :: >> and cursor come back to login: :: > :: >looks like the installer did something really stupid and fscked with :: >/etc/profile. since you can't seem to login you will have to boot :: >into single user mode, perhaps even into sash. linux init=/bin/sh :: >SULOGIN=/bin/sash ( i think) delete any jdk crap from /etc/profile. :: > :: >-- :: >Ethan Benson :: >http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/ :: > :: >Content-Type: application/pgp-signature :: >Content-Disposition: inline :: > :: >Attachment converted: MacOS:Untitled 17 (????/----) (00002DFD) :: :: :: -- :: To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] :: with a subject of "unsubscribe".
