try the correct password
>>108501793type in password where, in apt? Your solution is to mount the live USB you installed it from, mount the installation drive, chroot into it, and fix your /etc/passwd or change the root password. curious, did you try making a test password on a test account you know is good first, and verifying that password is good? Did you also try sudo su to get a root shell and change use passwd <user> to change that user's password?
Ask gay-eye for help.
>>108501817yeah, i did try to type the password into the terminal, i couldve sworn that it's 100% the correct passwordand no, i never create a test password an a test account to test out if the password is good :(

>>108501875in grub click e find thing with vmlinuz file go to the end of it type in init=/bin/bash OR /sbin/bash i dont know then boot into that system type passwd and set the password again
>>108501793>types the right password*>WRONGdid you set a root password and a user password? that could be where you fucked up. usually root pw is left blank.

>>108501793you are too stupid to OS, go back to windows, Mac OS or Android.
>>108502053login as root and remove the password

>>108502127oh yeah, i am retarded. welp, thanks for the help guys, bye.
>>108502100i use doas because i dont use debian based bullshit
>>108501793Kinda dumb but if you're not from the US, your keyboard layout might differ from the one during install. Have you considered that? Try out the password as the username and see what it prints out.
>>108501793>try to download something>"type in password"makes no sense.
