https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=217425 ------- Comment #26 from gerberb@zenez.com 2006-12-14 05:05 MST ------- On IRC there have been a lot of reports of no passowrd being set for root. Needing to create a root password like using http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-tutorials-howtos-reference-material/5... Or other root password setting methods like bash shell from grub, rescue system. I was able to deublicate this by doing a net install from local NFS shares. During the installation I took my NFS share offline and after a time the installation looked like it had finished. On the reboot there was no root password. I created one and then restarted the installation. Many have waited over 10 hours for an net installation and then can not login. I am not sure what to do. I think this is being caused by all the load on the main/mirrors for installation. I am not sure what can be done. I felf it needed to be reported. Thanks, Comment #1 From Boyd Gerber 2006-12-13 04:20:14 MST [reply] Because an installation does not continue with an ignore to the next file it abouts installation. This is a major bug. I was doing an upgrade of my laptop. I had to start the net installation over 14 times because of individual file failures. It would be better if the installation would continue to the next file/set of files on an ignore. The installation used to do this, but with 10.1 and now 10.2 if fails/aborts. It is a real pain. This should probably be an aditional bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
