Re: [LINUX_Newbies] need help to install Linux ubuntu

 



Thanks for your reply
I have tried the following:-
Username    password
 
ubuntu        blank
ubuntu        ubuntu
blank           ubuntu
Admin        blank
blank         Admin
blank        admin
admin        admin
blank        admin
blank        blank
root            blank
root        root
Root        Root
blank        root
ubuntu    12345
password    password
ubuntu    password
admin    password
blank    password
and as many combinations as you can think of.
So thanks for your sugestion but i think i have got to the stage that unles someone can tell me the actual cardinals or a copy on the OS that does not ask for them can be forund I am probably going to forget it.
As this group is for those that are completly new to the OS i think that this problem is as close as your get to it's remit.
 
Many thanks

Speaking for myself, I have zero experience with Ubuntu. I would
suggest though that a username you might try is root. There might not
be a password yet. There also might be. If so the password is probably
the same as the username. This can be changed later if you choose to
install.
