--------------DE1CC728EFB3DDD3E2CA36DC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Dear Sirs, I recently bought Free BSD 3.1 from Walnut Creek, but I got some problems in the installation: I have a CD-ROM bootable Bios, so I booted from CD-ROM, I chose the novice installation, I created a slice in an empty hard disk, I created a file system, I installed the Boot MGR because I have a crap as an operating system and I think you know what I am referring to. :-), then I chose the X user installation type, I was asked to install DES cryptography but I am outside the USA, so I think it is illegal to install it outside USA, then the program started to extract the ports, and started to install everything. After that, I was asked some questions: do u want to configure a SLIP/PPP network?I chose NO. will this machine be an IP gateway?I chose NO. Do u want to allow anonymous FTP connections to this machine?I chose NO Do u want to configure this machine as an NFS server?I chose NO Do u want to adjust any options of the system console?NO do u want to configure the time?Yes, and I configures correctly Do u have a mouse attached to your PC?No do u want to configure the X-window system?No Do u wish to see the ports list?No Do u wish to create an user account?NO I typed a root pass, I retyped it, then a window with my personal information appeared, I filled it in. Then , I exit install, and when it reboots, I am asked for a login and a pass but I didnīt enter any login. How can I make it work?Should I have created an user account? However, I made other things, a window appeared, and I was asked for the login, my UID was 1001, and a password, then I typed the root pass, I retyped it, I reboot, and when I was asked for the login, I entered it , then the pass, and I got the same wrong message:LOGIN FAILURE thank u very much!!! --------------DE1CC728EFB3DDD3E2CA36DC Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html> Dear Sirs, <br> I recently bought Free BSD 3.1 from Walnut Creek, but I got some problems in the installation: <br>I have a CD-ROM bootable Bios, so I booted from CD-ROM, I chose the novice installation, I created a slice in an empty hard disk, I created a file system, I installed the Boot MGR because I have a crap as an operating system and I think you know what I am referring to. :-), then I chose the X user installation type, I was asked to install DES cryptography but I am outside the USA, so I think it is illegal to install it outside USA, then the program started to extract the ports, and started to install everything. <br>After that, I was asked some questions: <br>do u want to configure a SLIP/PPP network?I chose NO. <br>will this machine be an IP gateway?I chose NO. <br>Do u want to allow anonymous FTP connections to this machine?I chose NO <br>Do u want to configure this machine as an NFS server?I chose NO <br>Do u want to adjust any options of the system console?NO <br>do u want to configure the time?Yes, and I configures correctly <br>Do u have a mouse attached to your PC?No <br>do u want to configure the X-window system?No <br>Do u wish to see the ports list?No <br><b>Do u wish to create an user account?NO</b> <br>I typed a root pass, I retyped it, then a window with my personal information appeared, I filled it in. <br>Then , I exit install, and when it reboots, I am asked for a login and a pass but I didn´t enter any login. <br>How can I make it work?Should I have created an user account? <br>However, I made other things, a window appeared, and I was asked for the login, my UID was 1001, and a password, then I typed the root pass, I retyped it, I reboot, and when I was asked for the login, I entered it , then the pass, and I got the same wrong message:<b>LOGIN FAILURE</b> <br>thank u very much!!!</html> --------------DE1CC728EFB3DDD3E2CA36DC-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
