See FAQ: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/faq/admin.html#FORGOT-ROOT-PW Just change your shell instead of your password. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/faq/admin.html#RCCONF-READONLY helps if the drive is mounted read-only. Hint: the default root shell is /bin/sh or /bin/csh. HTH -Christoph Sold To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
