Can't say with Linux.   Didn't see what Tom suggested but anything I've
seen him suggest has worked for me so his record is a lot better than
mine:-)

If I had to make a call in this case, anyone who's decided to "trick" the
system during installation by trying to enter no passwords just might have
screwed up a bunch of other stuff so I'd recommend a clean install myself.
But I don't know the details of this situation.
