Re: [Fedora-livecd-list] Password for fedora livecd

Use /sbin/grub-md5-crypt to create a password hash. Then, in your ks file add a line like
this...

rootpw --iscrypted \$1\$vLOQS9GY\$HDQlZbYtdQ0/LT3RKxjD80

(where all the crazy text is the result of running grub-md5-crypt).

Subject: [Fedora-livecd-list] Password for fedora livecd


  
Hello all,
      I added/removed some packages & created a fedora customized livecd using by the
livecd-fedora-9-desktop.ks and livecd-fedora-9-base.ks files.
When I am trying to access the system settings or any superuser's applications, its
asking root password. I did not set any root password in the .ks file and I tried
"root","", "fedora" & "toor" also. But no use.
Somebody already posted the same query in this mailing list. But I did not find any proper
reply for that query. Help me to disable the root password or how to reset the root
password by editing my customized .iso.

Regards,
Prakash.
