Cannot set root password
I just installed "Don't Panic". The install seemed to go OK, but when I attempt to set the root password I get the message
passwd: Authentication token lock busy
I would appreciate information on how to do this.

Re: Cannot set root password
Try to chroot into your install from a live cd and run passwd root.

Re: Cannot set root password
Problem resolved. It must have been a glitch in the original install as a reinstall solved problem.
