I'm running Grub .97 with an OpenSuSE 11.2 and Windows XP installation. I configure the grub password in OpenSuSE 11.2 via the Boot Loader
module. However, when I type in the password in grub, during bootup, I simply get a Failed
message. I have tried about three or four different passwords. I can boot up, I just can't use the password to edit anything about grub.
I have also tried setting the grub password via the command line by typing grub
to go to the interactive menu, typing md5crypt
, typing my password, and copying the hashed password to the menu.lst file. Still no luck when I enter the password.
