For example if > I install TDE, I expect it to come up with login manager ... why would I > still expect a console login, when I have installed TDE? because something may go wrong with the login manager. filesystem corruption could result, meaning that the login manager completely fails and will not permit a login of any kind (i have actually genuinely had this happen: it turned out to be that /home was not writeable), and you would otherwise need to take the drastic action of rebooting into "init 1" to recover... BUT... let's assume that there are mission-critical files still being served up from the machine: other users (over a network) are connected to something on the machine (its printers, whatever doesn't matter) so you CAN'T just reboot it... i would expect under these circumstances to just be able to press "Ctrl-Alt-F1" and to log in at a text console as root. if that's *not possible* then it's a severe bug. l. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-devel-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-devel-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
