Grr.. Nethaji.. I'm a human., why not write in some human language (plain text english).. When you are composing a message to any mailing list please choose `plain' in the Yahoo Compose window. This way you can do me a lot of favour. :) Nethaji <netcyrix@xxxxxxxxx> writes: > Is there any to get into my linux os as i forgot my user > name and password....</DIV> Do you remember the password for the `root' account. If you have that, login as root and change your password. If you forgot the root password itself, you'd have to boot in single user mode. This entirely depends on what Bootloader you have. Tell me what Bootloader, Distro, version you have installed. Cheers, Joe -- Homepage : http://www.joesteeve.tk/ Weblog : http://gnukid.blogspot.com/
