I enter root as login and the password I set in the installation but it tells me login failed
Can someone help? Thank you in advance
Yes...don't log in as root. That's a bad thing to do...root should only be used for VERY specific things. Can you log in as another user??? And have you contacted Red Hat support for help, since you're using RHEL 7...you are PAYING FOR IT, right???
That's a normal login screen. Maybe you mistyped the password during installation? You can reset it with these steps. Don't worry if it looks complicated they just give very detailed instructions. http://linuxconfig.org/recover-a-for...selinux-system
