i'd like to turn the cotents of my 512mb sd card into an image and a tar ball, so others simply could download an use them w/o need to go through that whole installation process. but there's a little snag i hit: i already set a password for the root account. since i don't use the 512mb card (too small) i can't simply reset the password (actually, i am not sure if debian would allow that at all).
so, is /etc/shadow the right file and should a passwordless root account there look like this: root::14107:0:99999:7::: ? to answer further questions: michael shiloh already offered to host the resulting files. for ease of use i intend to create 3 files actually: - one image of the whole card - one image of the boot partition (8mb) - one tar ball of the contents of the system partition if someone has anything to say about that (especially the arguments for tar), speak now or forever hold your peace! _______________________________________________ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
