Do you get a message 'root account locked, starting shell?' fsck errors should drop into a sulogin shell, which asks for the password. The only way you could get a root shell is if your root device cannot be found. In that case, there is no way to ask for a password because there is no password file. If you must, there might be a way to get what you want by adding files to the initramfs by dropping a file in /etc/initramfs-tools/hooks/ or the like. But if you find yourself needing to secure against that, then you must also set a bootloader password, lock out alternative boot methods, set a BIOS password and put your machine behind lock and key. Do you really need that? Regards, Arno -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
