RESOLVED: First Install Not Accepting Server Username and Password

Postby Seeker » Sun Mar 22, 2015 2:44 pm

This is my first time trying to use Amahi and Linux. I followed the installation instructions on this site but now when I try to login to my HDA from a browser on another computer on my network it asks me for my username and password. I have entered every username/password that I could have feasibly used and it is not letting me login.

I only remember setting a password during the install process and not a username. Is there a possible solution to this problem and/or way in which I can reset the server username and password info?


Thanks,

If you did create a user, you will have to start over.

The install instructions specifically state to create a user and password.

How can I start over? I have had to use an external USB DVD drive to boot from the Amahi disk. Now I can only boot from the HD with Amahi installed (it does not seem to recognize the USB DVD drive).

Thanks for your help.

Most machines allow booting from a USB device via the BIOS.

When you first power on, try pressing F12.

If that does not work, consider using the unsupported Fedora 19 USB install guidance in the wiki.

Are you sure you did not create a user during install?
