    passwd knoppix

    I Was wondering if I was to put the following command into a script that I called at boot time, would it work?

    passwd knoppix $'\n' 'NewPassword' $'\n' 'NewPassword' $'\n'

    Trying to get the password automatically set upon boot to a default password of my choosing (Yes I know it's insecure, but it's not something I'm worried about the security on)

    The $'n' is supposed to be a carriage return (Enter I'm hoping).

    Will this this work or is there something else I need to do to do what I want this to do? I'm not at a machine I can test it on at the moment or else I wouldn't have posted that

    Why do you need the password?
    You want to start a sshd? Then start it from the hdd while customizing, create the keys, set the password and stop it. And create the compressed fs.

    Bye
