I am a new subscriber but an old user, especially on linux.<br>
I have some problem to boot my box because I changed some files by a live cd.<br>
I lost my root password so tried some old method to change it. I tried<br>
to boot in single mode but it doesn't worked. After that I change the<br>
passwd file removing the x character ... but this has broken my box.<br>

I have rid of the following errors on the log:<br>
Nov 3 17:40:06 localhost dbus-daemon: Could not get password database<br>
information for UID of current process: User "???" unknown or no<br>
memory to allocate password entry<br>
Nov 3 17:40:06 localhost dbus-daemon: Unknown username "root" in<br>
message bus configuration file<br>
<br>
Anyone know how to fix it ?<br>
Oh the last thing, my bot does not boot property, I mean it stop at<br>
Network manager startup and it does not give me the login prompt on<br>
gdm or console.<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
