I've downloaded the Fedora 12 desktop edition and I've installed it now
three times on a U2 server of ours. Every time after the reboot of the newly
installed system, I get the login screen. The first time when I installed, I
used a password that I always use as a default, at least I thought, I wasn't
100% sure. I typed in "root" with out the quotes and type in the default
password that I always use. "Authentication Failed" and doesn't log on.

 

Okay, another 6 hours of installation, this time I write down the password
that I typed in for root. Another reboot without the live CD to the clean
install, and I get the login screen. I type "root" and the written down
password. Same thing "Authentication Failed".

 

That night I start another 6 hours of a clean install and this time I use
the word "password" for the requested password. I know that I can not mess
that up.

 

The next day I come in to a clean install from the Live CD and I get the
login screen. I type "root" and "password". "Authentication Failed"..

 

If I wanted an operating system that all it does is display "Authentication
Failed", I'd be in business. I was hoping it would do more than that.

 

What am I doing wrong?
