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.
Argh. Well your last sentence explains why it works once running. Will
eventually look into this.
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.
g-i-s? I also gave them their passwords in the installer, but
appearently that got loss with the install failure.
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.
Same. I *THINK* on firstboot, I got the keyboard selection right.
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.
Got notes here somewhere on how to do this. Now that you point it out
to me.
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
Once I get things working. Not a time to try booting with the SSD and
getting it working. My wife wants me to make some more music CDs and do
some recordings backups. And we know about working in the honeydo patch!
