I have tried "passwd". No luck!!
1. start Knoppix normaly
2. when everithing is up, click on monitor icon in panel
3. type su + Enter
4. type passwd + Enter
5. now type your new password + Enter ( you will not see anything, it's normal)
6. re-type your new password + Enter
Is it working now?
Thanks for the post. It works.
thanks again
THANK YOU! I was wondering why whenever I went to use the root command prompt it kept harrassing me about a password....
