Just to drop my 'fly in the ointment' so to speak, has anyone noticed that on all the Restore CD's APART from the RaQ4 that we got with our RaQ4 about 8 months ago the root account won't let me login!

On the other O/S restore cd's I always logged in via the 'hidden' terminal on Alt-F5 with root and modprobe'd my own network drivers.
Unfortunately the shadow files looks like they were blanked on shipping of the RaQ4 cd and so it doesn't let me do this anymore :( v annoying!!

Bruce, can you tell me if the CDs in downloads have this bug aswell, or was that fixed?

Thanks!!

Regards,

Andy
