Re: Debian Etch Installation. Root password doesn't works, why?

["Manuel Gómez" <mgdpz1@gmail.com>]

At last i know what's going out! My partitions are:

/ - nosuid
/var -nodev
/usr -nodev
/tmp - nodev,nosuid

Have i made any mistake? When i create "/" and install debian in it works. But it's strange, when i install Debian the last one I had created the partitions like this, and it was working.

Thank you very much.

Debain disros do not normally allow root from the gnome GUI. Are you failing log-in at the Gnome prompt, as root?  To do that requires a change to the settings.

I suggest you create a new user from the cli and then login as this new user at gnome.
