aargh!
i apologize for the barrage of e-mails today... this one is a bit of a
necessity though:
i spoke too soon about fixing the computer. after running dselect to
(thereotically) put the packages back that were missing before, i then
logged out of enlightenment. instead of going to a X Server login, however,
i went just to the command line prompt. i tried to reboot, but then it gives
me a 'give root password for maintenance (or type control-D for normal
startup." i can't use my password and control-D doesn't work! i tried
cntrl-alt-del and no luck with that either. so i am stuck at this prompt!
all i want to do now is reintall debian from scratch, but how do i get past
this prompt?
best, and thanks for putting up with these e-mails,
nick
