Hello,
I've downloaded livedvd_SL53_2009-03-23.iso and it works fine when I
boot it with the "failsafe" command. However with "linux [options]", I
don't get a chance to set a password and all attempts at login are
rejected for either sluser or root. I've tried the "pw=" and "nopasswd"
options, but they seem to have no effect. I'm just taken straight from
the keyboard choice screen to the login screen, rather than being asked
to choose a password as I am with "failsafe". Has anyone else seen this
behaviour? Is there something else I should be doing?
In case it matters, the machine in question is an IBM Thinkpad x31
laptop with an external usb dvd drive.
