  • Попробуй ubuntu логин и тот же пароль – Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy Jan 09 '16 at 18:20
  • that would not have introduced all one asks! – Alex Lynx Jan 09 '16 at 19:00
  • What do you mean ? Explain – Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy Jan 09 '16 at 19:01
  • enter Ubuntu,the password field is empty and he throws again to enter the login and password,this indicates an incorrect entry! – Alex Lynx Jan 09 '16 at 19:13
  • In command-line password field is always hidden, which makes it look empty. Is that showing up empty in graphical environment ? – Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy Jan 09 '16 at 19:16
  • sudo passwd ubuntu@ubuntu enter the new password(the cursor in place) repeat the password again no display – Alex Lynx Jan 09 '16 at 19:23
  • Not correct. sudo passwd ubuntu – Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy Jan 09 '16 at 19:25
  • Может проще если я на русском буду обьяснять ? – Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy Jan 09 '16 at 19:28
  • Maybe this or this will help? – Fabby Jan 09 '16 at 19:49
  • Проще! приду с работы, буду мучить. – Alex Lynx Jan 10 '16 at 03:39
  • загрузив живую систему при просьбе ввода логина и пароля вошёл терминал и ввёл sudo adduser своё имя и пароль,повторил пароль,а остальное проигнорировал(телефон,номер дома ,хаты) изменения вступили в силу . стал заходить под своим именем и паролем система пыталась запустить рабочий стол,но опять вышла на введение пароля под моим именем. кстати убунта и пустой пароль вела себя так же! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 10:16
  • не пойму зачем вообще просьба в живой системе логина и пароля,ведь в кубунту нет,минт нет,думаю и в федоре и дебиан не будет,зачем такие заморочки? – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 10:18
  • может просто unity не желает загрузиться,хотя фон рабочего стола есть?! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 10:19

The user name is ubuntu and there is no password http://chronicles.blog.ryanrampersad.com/2010/07/ubuntu-usernamepassword-on-live-cd/

if it's not working try Ctrl+Alt+F2. You should see a console. Type

sudo adduser (any name you want)

and follow the instructions. Afterwards press Ctrl+Alt+F7 and use the info you just created.

  • what is "Edubuntu"? – Alex Lynx Jan 09 '16 at 19:16
  • if it's not working again try the instructions I just added to my answer to create another one. – Hanzō Jan 09 '16 at 19:16
  • "edubuntu" as user name and no password – Hanzō Jan 09 '16 at 19:17
  • "sudo adduser anyname" will feel! – Alex Lynx Jan 09 '16 at 19:19
  • use the command "sudo adduser" chose any name and follow the instructions – Hanzō Jan 09 '16 at 19:22
  • any luck with that? – Hanzō Jan 09 '16 at 19:53
  • спасибо,буду пытаться! – Alex Lynx Jan 10 '16 at 03:40
  • всё одно пытается загрузить рабочий стол и выходит на ввод пароля под моим именем! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 10:22
  • sorry but I don't speak Russian language! can you speak English?! – Hanzō Jan 11 '16 at 15:07
  • all one tries to load the desktop and entering the password under my name! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 15:21
  • downloading live system when you request the login and password entered terminal and typed Sudo AddUser your name and password, repeat the password, and the rest is ignored (phone, house, hut) changes came into force. go under your name and password, the system tried to start the desktop, but again entered the password under my name. by the way Ubuntu and a blank password did! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 15:24
  • even with my username and password no launch the desktop!I dropped my hands! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 15:25
  • as I can see using 'ubuntu' and blank password works for you?! so you just need to proceed and install Ubuntu and you will be requested to add a user name and I'm sure it will work once the installation is finished. – Hanzō Jan 11 '16 at 15:54
  • 4 times I installed and after that the same thing as in the living system,work Desk entrance only via login and password and whatever I typed and will not let me! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 15:57
  • why in Ubuntu there is an option at every startup? – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 15:58
  • where did you get the Ubuntu Image? from the official website of ubuntu? – Hanzō Jan 11 '16 at 16:00
  • Yes! even before it was installed and worked fine,but for some reason not updating the kernel. I tried to reinstall and got out a bug! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 16:03
  • excuse me,I need to work! – Alex Lynx Jan 11 '16 at 16:07
  • it looks like the Ubuntu image you are using was downloaded before and not recently and may has some problems, I suggest download a new image from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop this is the Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS I already used this version and it works fine (avoid looking for DVD version 4GB) just download the 1GB image and try it – Hanzō Jan 11 '16 at 16:08
  • Hanzo,comrade,after all, I am using the latest downloaded image! – Alex Lynx Jan 12 '16 at 13:38
  • I'm at a loss,since many times installed Ubuntu comrades and myself enjoyed it for 4 years,since Cialiy 10.04,but due to the ending support the last updated before the next release Ubuntu ,perfectly working with her! – Alex Lynx Jan 12 '16 at 13:38
  • I have the image of 12.04,which is installed and works,but for some reason does not want to upgrade to 12.10-13.04-13.10 and 14.04 and beyond?! – Alex Lynx Jan 12 '16 at 13:40
  • Ok, how did you downloaded the Image? did you used some kind of download manager? (it may corrupt the ISO).. if yes try downloading again the image using the torrent (this how I did it) and use Live USB instead for burning the image. I hope this may help you! – Hanzō Jan 12 '16 at 19:30
  • there is no difference between direct download and torrent,important to verify the hash ,bootable USB flash drive wrote means Ubuntu in the live system,run the BIOS set with the CSS,what's wrong?! we go around the circle and answer I still have not heard constructive! – Alex Lynx Jan 13 '16 at 15:35
