Hello

I am new linux user.

I would like to cancel password on boot display.

When I click power button on my computer , Redhat doesnt ask a password.

I want that When I open my computer red hat boot without roort or user password. nO password ?

Could I cancel root password?

It is not recommended as this leaves your system very vulnerable, but you can remove the root password by logging in as root and then executing:

Code:

passwd -d root

Explain why you think you need to do this; as above it makes your system wide open.
Its possible we can find a better solution.

I THINK he actually just wants to configure the DM to log in without a password.

Well, we have occasionally had the odd newbie who thought you couldn't run a program until a user has logged in... so if its that, we can solve it.

Yes I want to boot without a password .

Because I have a Embeded Board , When I power the board , I want to log board without a password and active.

Actually I need cancel user prompt in log display.

I had looked for Timesys linux 4.1 but I didnt find it on net. So I try convert Red hat like Timesys Linux 4.1.
It is Embeded linux .

Noe I cancel this display now. Picture is:
