Login Problem

[dazar]

Hi All

I have just installed YDl on my ps3 and the install went alright but I have nowhere to set my user login or password. I have set my root password and can go into that but I can't login into anything other than root. I was following a step by step guide and this said that after welcome screen I should get welcome screen and license agreement but I have not seen this. I have reinstalled once already and am beggining to think maybe I have a dodgy disc.

Any help or ideas aprreciated

If you can log in as root, you should be able to run this via a terminal and add a regular user:

Code: Select all

system-config-users

Were you installing in text mode by any chance? If you have a SDTV and install in text mode, you won't get the 2nd part of the installer. This would only set up the root user account - you'd have to manually turn on graphics and create a standard user.

Just in case you're in text mode, here's the instructions to set up graphics:
