How to create shadow passwords manually.........
My Etch installer doesn't finish the installation, so i have to just reboot, and create my own passwords and such from the shell, and a few other things by hand. But these are in /etc/passwd There is no /etc/shadow file. Apart from creating the /etc/shadow file, how do i create shadow passwords?
