Ultimate Debian Live CD asks for Login and Password
 

After the boot process completes and presents a choices Menu,
I select for it to use RAM (2nd menu choice from the top of the
choices list as near as I can remember...
What comes next is that it requests
Login .......

Password .......

This is a ludicrous idea for a Live CD
I have used Ubuntu Live CDs and not had any
of this nonsense.

I cannot find any information in any text files on the CD,
neither can I find any information on
http://debian-live.alioth.debian.org -->> Debian Live Home Page

Is there some secret to this or are the developers just playing silly games?

If anyone has a solution I would like to hear it.

Many thanks.

Well that was difficult !

Ok, that was nice and all... except it doesn't work... I can not log into the live disk using live:live... I have tried several combos (found online) and none are working... I have even re-downloaded the disk... any other ideas smoker?

you mean this one?

use sudo su to be root, you know
thats if your talking about my Debian Ultimate CD above

Yep, tried those too... fail.

I downloaded a different version lets see if that works.

exactly what are you downloading?
the link

What I am downloading: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/sq...me-desktop.iso

Bear in mind (though I know it was not mentioned earlier) I am using the "pendrivelinux" multiboot tool to create a multiboot thumbdrive with Memtest86, UBCD, and debian. the other two work great but I cant log into debian, so... I give up, none worked, I'm switching back to Fedora.

I am disappoint.

NOTE: I know this is probably the multiboot tool that's borking it... and I know that I can use their Debian image (which works). But their image is old as crap and does not contain basic wireless firmware or drivers making it useless to me.

that's a true Debian Live CD
not "Ultimate Debian LiveCD"
?

anyway, these are more up-to-date
http://live.debian.net/cdimage/month...86/iso-hybrid/

should be
user live
live live

one of those
