I have downloaded the Image for ROCK PI 5_ Debian and successfully “Belena Etchered” to a micro SD card.
It boots into Debian but wants a password, but there is no option for me to create a password.
Is there a default or root password to get me into the system? Or I am forever locked out, and there is no command line available.
Help appreciated.
did you try “rock” and “rock” for username and password?
That did it!
However, I am now in a session for Root (“Rock”), and there is no way in the GUI (XFCE is the default) to add users.
By the way, is that “Rock and Rock” anywhere in the documentation?
Yes, from this wiki page:
https://wiki.radxa.com/Rock5/guide/radxa-debian
rock rock is listed in the Default User Account section
Ah, so it is! I am usually a Ubuntu user and know how to move around that better.
And yes, I have realised that “rock” is actually the user account,
Thanks for your help; it is incredible how a little problem (misunderstanding) can stop you from moving forward.
