Hi,

I've just flashed Alt-F-0.1B7 and then installed Debian from the webgui.

I then executed it.

I'm trying to login via putty, but I don't know the root password.

I've tried the password that logs me into Aft-F (the one I set),
but it does'nt work.

I don't want to just kill the power to the 323 and reboot into Alt-F,
because the last time I did that it killed my test drive (an old 160gb),
and now I've got my 2tb's in it...

Anyone know what the default password is please?

It appears in the buttons tooltip (and confirmation dialogue?) to start Debian... it is '1234'

You can return to Alt-F by typing 'alf-f'; this does *not* does a clean shutdown, just kexecs Alt-F.

You was right, intuitively one attempts to use the default Alt-F web password, so I  changed it in this way for the next version.

You should also know that there is a 'debian' Alt-F command-line to kexec or chroot Debian

which is buggy, it should be:

#!/bin/bash

if test "$(runlevel | cut -d" " -f1)" != "1"; then
    echo -e "Debian is not being cleanly shutdown.\n"\
        "You should go to runlevel 1 by issuing the \"init 1\" command\n"\
        "before executing this command, or help me fix this script."
    exit 1
fi

kexec -l /boot/Alt-F-zImage --initrd=/boot/Alt-F-rootfs.arm.cpio-sq.lzma \
    --command-line="console=ttyS0,115200" && kexec -e

This code should be integrated in the debian reboot/kexec sequence. Can anyone write it?

Another bug: the Alt-F version that is installed in Debian /boot is 0.1B6, and not 0.1B7.
