OK at this point you're running into the GPT-swap commonbugs so you might go read all of that to see what applies to your situation. You can ignored the swap thing or you can # it out in fstab, systemd still activates it based on partitiontypeGUID. > > The process to create a user in the 'firstboot' environment did not allow for > tagging the user to be an adminstrator. How do I do that? No idea I don't ever use g-i-s, I give root and user their passwords in the installer. > > More importantly, once I got logged into the system, I have no idea what it > set the root password to. Definitely not what I provided, nor <null>. 'su > -' with all sorts of tries never got me into root. Maybe you used one keyboard layout in the installer and you've booted with a different layout? That's all I can think of and can't help with it because I've only ever used default (U.S.) keyboard installs. > So how do I change the root password (hmm did it even create a root user?)? OK that's a bit of first day at the rodeo questions now! Pretty sure you can go back to the chroot and set a new passwd for root and user if you can't remember them. > I would like to upload those firstboot messages, if you think they tell > anything (like the swap drive fail), but are they in /var/log/messages any > longer, and of course I need root to get to them (though I could probably > mount that drive here and check). journalctl -xb | grep -i swap Chris Murphy -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
