No problem, I say, I'll just login as root, remove my first default user, then recreate and loose the trackpad disablement. But, there's no way to login as root!!!
I have XFCE installation and I can login as root. Did you select initial user during installation? Did you set user password (I think default checkbox is to use the same password for root as for initial user).
No problem, I say, I'll just boot into bash by adding init=/bin/bash on the Grub "linux" line. Great, that works and I've got a command prompt. But, the shell seemed to be running as an unpriviledged user! It would say "/usr/sbin/userdel appears to require root authorization, which you don't have", or some-such. It wouldn't let me do anything that required root authorization! I've didn't try to boot into "single-user" because of bad experiences I've had with a certain initialization system.
That's due to missing /sbin and /usr/sbin in PATH. Just set them or use full path. But do not forget that you will need to remount / rw and to mount all subvolumes first if you used default btrfs layout. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
