[SLUG] linux mandrake


(bounced from committee@ to slug@)

hi,
could anybody help me please with the following problem.

I have installed the program 5 times over the last 8 hours, and I can't get 
past the login stage, each time.
my user name is accepted, my password is accepted, but then I get the 
following line
[harry@localhost harry] $_  the cursor is flashing, but no matter what I 
enter now it goes back to login

I have read my little red book, but can't find what I am supposed to enter 
after the localhost line

I have entered my root password, but that also does not help me....


I thought it was about time that I found another o/s but so far I am 
getting nowhere fast..

thanks Harry
