It's obviously not impossible. The first time I rebooted the machine after changing the master password in Thunderbird, I could not boot the machine with my old boot password. I then tried the Thunderbird master password and the machine booted. I don't know how this works, all I know is what happened. Impossible. You must have done something else.
I agree with Carlos. The Thunderbird master password has nothing to do with the grub boot password. You can have a boot password without Thunderbird even being installed.
But I'm puzzled, Doug. If you don't like Thunderbird passwords, why do you have a boot password? They are optional after all.
It is really the login password, not grub's password. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
