Hi, there,
I must have changed the root password when I changed password for
somebody else using the root account. I can not figure out what is
the root password now.
And it is even worse, when it boot from boot diskette, I can not mount
the root directory, because under /dev there is nothing like /dev/hdax.
The hard disk I am using is an IDE SAMSUNG VG34323A (4.32GB), there are
3 partitions:
hda1 --> dos,
hda2 --> swap space,
had3 --> /
During the booting process from boot diskette, it is able to recgonize
the hard disk.
Can any one give me some advise?
Thanks,
Yang
