I have just installed FreeBSD on a hard drive and after the startup is finished ,it asks for Login and then Password.
Thinking that i could set a login name and password that the system would remember i typed in my surname and used it also as the password. I then got the message "incorrect".
i tried again and the same result.so i cannot go any further until i know if the is a default login and password that can be used.Please let me know what I have done wrong and how to proceed.The version is FreeBSD 2.2.6
                    Thanking you in advance.
