i'm trying to install mandriva for the third time off the same cd on third different machine. it get's to the point where it looks like it's going to the desktop, then switches to a login window that says:
(none) login: there's a blinking "_"
what is the default login for logging in to that? i've tried everything under the sun, including localhost (in several different formats), my name from other machines, name at the mandriva update site, EVERYTHING!!
what caused the dilemma is when i tried installing mandriva on this machine the first time, i was going to resize partition and dual boot with ubuntu. after screwing that up, i got that issue. i reinstalled ubuntu already just fine (formatted entire disk) and am now back to trying to install mandriva, but it won't get past the window mentioned above.
HELP!!
Thank you
