[Solved]No User to login with after install of Salix OS Mate
Posted: 13. May 2012, 08:44
Hi
Install seemed to go fine... except after setting root password it skipped the user account creation for some reason.
Now I can't login. How can I create a user, after the fact.
Please keep it simple as I am a linux/Salix OS beginner?
Thanks in advance for your guidance
Zeb...
ps currently writing this from a kubuntu install... can I edit any files on the relevant partition from here ?
EDIT apologies - did not find this before
Alt-F2
log in as root
run usersetup and create a user
Alt-F7
log in as user
going to try that now - will report back
