Vikk42 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Can't seem to get logged in. Not used to cmd line and can't see first 10 characters. Would like to see a detailed line by line entry for changing the password. Yes I am that stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You forget the "root" as first, then "1234" x2, then new password x2, then user name, then password for the user x2, then again user name, then 4x enter and then "y" I think that's the right order, I don't know why it asks for a phone number and a room number.

Vikk42 Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Thanks for the answers. I'm using an LG tv as a monitor and full screen resolution 1920 by 1080 the very top line and the bottom line as well as the first x characters are behind the bezel. Is there any way to change the boot config parameters to shift or shrink the display screen so all the characters are visible? I run into this problem on all initial system boots. https://docs.armbian.com/Hardware_Allwinner/#how-to-reconfigure-video-output found this now have to figure out how to make the changes Quote overscan_x/overscan_y=<int> - Set x/y overscan value This configures a black border on the left and right resp. top and bottom to deal with overscanning displays. Defaults to overscan_x=32 and overscan_y=20 for composite monitors, 0 for other monitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
