Boot -s doesn't work any other ideas
Hi I'm trying to recover a root password however when doing boot -s in the beggining it doesn't work at all . I can mount this disk from another OS (openbsd) and see the files on this hard disk. Is there any other way i can break the password so i can make this work., thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

When are you using boot -s, at the prompt that says hit enter or any other key? Dru To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

george - if you can mount the disk in openbsd, edit the /etc/master.passwd file and remove root's password. -Adam (07.20.2002 @ 0628 PST): george rousson said, in 0.4K: Hi I'm trying to recover a root password however when doing boot -s in the beggining it doesn't work at all .
