Arch Question


Recommended Posts

Well the self signed certificate fills me with confidence, but what's the actual point? Pretty sure the base Arch install doesn't have any non-free stuff included.

The normal Linux kernel contains proprietary binary blobs, Parabola uses Linux-Libre. It also includes a meta-package that blocks non-free packages.

And it is not self signed, it is a CACert certificate. Also, it is listed on the GNU Fully free distributions list http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html.

Reset password does nothing. Maybe the above means something?

Okay. So the user exists that you created, but it says the password is wrong when you log in? You could try deleting the user and starting again:

$ userdel -r david
$ useradd -m -g users -G wheel david
$ passwd david
$ *Enter password*
Then try logging in as 'david':

$ su david
