user problem 29 October 2022, 10:04:16 I failed to assign a name to my user during install and just set the password, how do I know what's my desktop login to access my computer?
Re: user problem Reply #1 – 29 October 2022, 12:16:22 I'm assuming you went with the graphical installer?

Re: user problem Reply #6 – 29 October 2022, 17:36:29 There's no such thing as a 'desktop' login.There are user logins and a 'root' login.I've no idea how you managed to have no users ? You must have a root user surely ?Try user:rootpassword:whatever you set as password.You could chroot in and fix it all. But if that means nothing to you if it's a new install I'd be tempted to just install it again.
