Problem while logon to FreeBSD
-
Hi, Can anyone help me. Because I want to learn UNIX I have download FreeBSD LiveCD[^]. After I burn it to the CD and boot it from the CDROM, it did not display any graphic like Morphix Linux LiveCD. It display the command prompt for login name and password. I don't know what is the user name or any password that I could log on to it. Can any one help me??

In the unix world we resopnd to this with RTFM - Read the fine manual. (depending on how stupid your question is other adjitives are often substituted for fine) In this case, if you read http://livecd.sourceforge.net/documentos.php you will see the following: If you did not customize user/group and passwords, the default root account is passwordles. Enjoy ;-) Note that the documentation is aweful at this point, feel free to contribute better documents. P.S. I word my question this way because unix is not idiot friendly. You will need to learn where to find answers to your questions. I found the answer in less than 5 minutes, you should be able to do the same.

passwordles. I try to typerootas the login name andpasswordlesas the password but the system prompt me that incorrect login. I don't know what to do. Do you have any idea to explain this more clearly?

FreeBSD is my main OS, but I don't use the live CD, so I can't directly answer questions. Try a different support area, most people on code project use windows. I'm not sure which is best though. Make sure you specify exactly what you are typing, the exact version of the CD you are using, where you got it from.

I have 2 reason that I use FreeBSD LiveCD: 1. I want to learn UNIX at home for personal use and education purpose only. I want to know how it working windows and linux environment. 2. Because I have less PC and less of hard disk space, most of operating system that I use is LIVECD (to save disk space). Except windows and linux redhat that I have to install on hard disk. For Suse linux (both KDE and Genome), Knoppix and Mandrake, I use LiveCD. Because I just need it when I need to study...

For me, in codeproject I will answer any question that I know clear, whether it relate to windows or linux (I just begin linux too). Henry miller wrote: where you got it from I get it from here.[^]
