Hello, I'm new to reporting bugs, but I know my way (a bit) around linux. I am on a old iMac g3 (slot-loading) and am reproducing the same problem multiple times on fresh installations from the alternate PowerPC Ubuntu install disk. I've been using the recovery mode on the alternate disk to try and check the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files for information on my *supposedly* added account and found no traces of an account.
To remedy this, I have tried (by others' suggestion) modifying the root password while in recovery mode and my installation partition mounted at /, but this fails with an "authentication token manipulation error." Have there been any updates to this bug? I can provide more details on the configuration of my machine if that helps the process at all. -- Jaunty PPC alternate CD fails to create user account https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378706 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
