ASKING FOR ROOT PASSWRD FOR MAINTAINANCE

guys please after selecting root, im not able to enter the maintenance mide and type the mount command

The title is kinda misleading. It says "how to reset root password" but it's Actually how to reset normal user password. Because clicking on the root option requests you to enter a root password if you set one, in your case you did not that's why it just let you in. In my case I lost both user and root password and I need root password to access the root she'll

Thankyou, its working

Bro when I try to type new password the keys no working pls help

If you forgot to add your user name after passwd, your password set for root don't worry just follow the same steps.. This time whenever you select root after pressing ENTER you have to enter the password you set just before otherwise it will show Login Incorrect! So now after entering the correct password enter the same commands, don't forget to add your username this time

passwd <your username>

Thank you :)

Thank you.

When I press Enter for maintenance, it responds with "Login Incorrect". What should I do?

Thanks for password reset advised

Thank you

Thank you, it really helped

Thanks, It's work me

Bro help i cant t enter boot

also, many ubuntu systems disable root login, so resetting the root password is moot. you need to reset the other user's password, that has sudo privileges and not root , show them how to find the usernames ( other than the obviously disabled root ) and reset that password , also , if password login is disabled , this is not going to do anything

you are running it on a windows, yukk

so this works only when your physically at the machine .. not over ssh or etc network boot? .. right? :)

Boot live and chroot 😅
