Dear all My root account is locked. I experienced the well known issue "Debian authentication failure" at the log-in stage, i.e. it would not accept the root password. I accessed the BIOS to enter the safe mode, and discovered that my hard drive is almost full. I shall not attempt a fresh partitioning as many files are not backed up. So, I would like to ask: - Can I access the system to back up my working files? - How can I back up the files to an external device? Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) Release: 12 Codename: bookworm running on a Laptop hp ProBook 445
I would appreciate it if any kind soul could help me. I will buy you a cake! Heriberto
