re Corel Linux and Blank Passwords

Answered By Dave Cotton on Wed, 31 May 2000

This is just a long shot. I have only loaded Corel once or twice to see what it looked like. His name does not tell me, is he using a US keyboard, or a non US one? I have found that before the system is loaded on some distros you are in US keyboard layout, afterwards it runs your native keyboard. I got caught by this, I had numbers in the password, in the US they're unshifted in FR they're shifted!

Keep up the good work
