    Disk check gives root access!

    Greetings,
    After installing Knoppix onto the hard drive, when the computer crashes, it automatically does a disk check (ext3 FS) and after it's done, it gives root access without asking for a password. It is quite worriesome, because the computer is in a semi-public place.

    Has anyone run into the same problem?

    Any help is much appreciated.

    I'm not sure: which installer did you use?
