(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

i want to install puppy_slacko64_6.3.2, but he wants my password. How do you?
Thank you!

Password for root is "woofwoof". I don't know why it is asking, but that's what it is.

How are you doing the install?
Details?????????

Also, you posted in the wrong section of the forum.
Questions need to be posted in beginners or users section.
This section is for Puppy projects and usually Puppy new version development.

I downloaded it and it works fine, but when I try to install it on the hard drive it wants a password. where to take it?

explain what you are doing to install, I've never been asked for passwords

Maybe it's a hardware-side password for accessing the MBR or the harddisk? I also never had a password creep up on me from any Puppy install.

Are you talking about the UAC asking for Admin password to run a program in Windows 7/8/10? Please post a screenshot.

Something has been corrected in distribution Slacko64.. He no longer wants a password. It is installed like any other Puppy. Everything is ok. Thank you for your attention.

One post wonder? Troll? Bot?

passwords exist for some ISO Puppies, first use, you download ISO,install it , and when booting scripts ask for passwords.. At first use a password never should be asked. Only people having read about the ISO could know what to type.
The one i Am playing with ask password, i type it because i read this forum before dowloaded. once door opened, the script shows the password to be used to open it..
