It depends..
If it is a routerboard you can access through console, change the booting interface and reinstall it.
If it is a PC based you have to reinstall it through CD or NetInstall…
Bothways you’ll loose all the setup (so you’ll have to restore it from a backup) hopping you have done it.
Doing a software reset I THINK resets the password and username… But i am not sure… worth a try though, Using the S-rest shortening them on your board during startup will reset to factory settings i beleive… But not sure about the username and password. Good luck -Jordan
what about mounting ROS drive in other linux system and changing password in /etc/passwd? did anyone try?
Me no… but seems a nice idea
(what if it is encrypted there?)
i was going to try this for my graphs(old ones)
. i had Ubuntu installed on my hdd(but i had removed later
). I needed to restore the old graphs(1 year
), i still have them on my hdd. Pls tell me if this thing works and i will reinstall any linux distro
.
Or a cooler way, use a Live CD
, right on my router and i could restore them directly
. I’ll test this thing probably and with tell u the results
. I will see if it can be done anything about password :S.
Have a nice day ![]()
Edit: Tested this thing and it can’t be done anything like that ![]()
