[opensuse-factory] Cannot login in recue system
Since openSUSE 10.2 beta 2 cannot install grub correctly on my laptop (with an empty disk all dor openSUSE 10.2), I was giving a try on running grub myself from the shell. I booted the rescur from CD1, but I cannot login. If I type "root" it asks for the login again. If I type anything else, it says "login incorrect". Any ideas? I was really looking forward to test openSUSE 10.2 beta2 in this laptop.

Well, I finnally was able to login. Instead of booting from CD1 of beta2, I booted with the net installation CD, went to manual install, select "Start Rescue System", provided with a URL of the Factory tree, then it booted the rescue system, and I was able to login.

That's because this CD is either older than Beta2 (and therefore doesn't have the bug yet) or newer than Beta2 (and therefore has the bug already fixed). In general, try to search Bugzilla for FIXED bugs first or look at http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs - obvious bugs are documented there so that everybody knows if/when they are resolved.

Continue doing so. What you describe is known (in fact even mentioned as a "Most Annoying bug" on http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs) and already fixed (for RC1): https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=219112 Andreas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I didn't see that one, since I had just looked to the annoucment e-mail, and I failed to search bugzilla before mailing the list, sorry ;) In the meantime, maybe others can do as I did to boot the rescue system, use the "boot.iso" and run the rescue system available on the factory tree.
