a prolonged powerfailure shutdown my computer running ubuntu fiesty in the middle of a task. on reboot, everything seemed to work fine, but my root password is no longer working. a quick 'pwck' command results in pwck: cannot lock file /etc/passwd
how do i fix this problem? tia :-) niyam _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
