Problems with Yad

[joekamprad]

so password for user restored
now root password:
passwd
only no username added as you are root in the chroot already…
make sure that the file /etc/shadow have all the groups in again do not show the file here (security)
but look at it and check that it has not only one line starting with root: it must have a lot of lines like bin: mail: ftp: http: ... check the file:
cat /etc/shadow

[mr.ed]

[root@EndeavourOS /]# cat /etc/shadow
root:*

[joekamprad]

i say do not show the file

you need still to set root password…

[mr.ed]

I think that I have done this now …
passwd: password updated successfully

[joekamprad]

system should been fixed now

[mr.ed]

Then I will shut down live-ISO now and try to boot normally under my dual boot system.

[mr.ed]

Yes, it works! I can log into EOS normally again. Yad is also running fine. Many thanks, especially to Ricklinux who never loses patience!
