I am from Latvija! I had just bought the KNOPPIX v3.2 Live CD it has no instalation you just put in in and work! But the problem is that I don't know root password so I can't make new user and do other things. There is written
<RedHat> There is no automatic start of external accessible services.
<RedHat> 2.) There are no default passwords. All accounts are locked by default.
<RedHat> Even local logins are not possible (unless you set a password or create
<RedHat> new user accounts as root).
<RedHat> 3.) Therefore, all local interactive processes are started by init without
<RedHat> authorization.
<RedHat> Version 1.x up to and including 2.1-21-08-2001: Because there is no
<RedHat> valid password for "su", but still the possibility should exist to use
<RedHat> the system as "rescue cd", all programs (including KDE) are running
<RedHat> under root id.
<RedHat> Changed from version 2.1-24-08-2001 and up: The graphical desktop
<RedHat> is started with the unprivileged user id "knoppix". Programs that
<RedHat> only work for root are started using sudo without password. This has
<RedHat> the advantage of making faults caused by defective software very
<RedHat> unlikely, but does not enhance local security, since it is fairly
<RedHat> easy to switch between the "knoppix" and "root" account. The knoppix
<RedHat> user should never be allowed for external logins (in the case that
<RedHat> sshd or similar servers are being launched).
WHAT TO DO??? Please Help!!! :cry:
