Hi folks- I just upgraded 3.3-r to 3.4-r via a snapshot that was placed on a cdrom. The upgrade seemed to go well, as I didn't get any errors. As it asked at the end, I rebooted. Now I see the kernel name has changed to 'Amnesiac' and it doesn't like roots passwd. So I tried starting in single user mode by rebooting and typing in: boot -s . For some reason it still wants a login/passwd. I thought single user mode was login/passwd -less. It now seems I can't get logged into the box :( . Ideas? -- Allen Cleveland allenc@mindsieve.com There is no try. Do, or do not do, but no try. -Yoda Hate spam?
