Better, look at /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. You should see something like: /etc/passwd: root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash /etc/shadow root:$6$LNA7oLuiu4$2Mwm0/K052zN5haUkTBdCgBuBEqQ7123456789/WSBBtGyP0ELoBSq5intYpKK1RdjHjkSqcPizjFATt.Onlp0:15010:0:99999:7::: The shadow entry is one line. The second entry between the :s is the hashed password. Not having /dev mounted in chroot will also cause the problem. In an emergency, edit passwd and shadow like: passwd root::0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash shadow root::15010:0:99999:7::: Then you can login as root without a password. Of course you don't want to leave it that way. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
