debian-user,
I am a linux newbie.
I just recompiled my kernel and lost my root password. When
logging in the system no longer asks for a password, but only if I log in
as root. The other users and passwords still work corectlly. I have tried
to change the password for root, but afterwords the system still does not
request a password for root.
Could somebody clue me in to my mistake?
Thanks,
Andy
