[SOLVED] Password problems, 4.2 Lite Live usb stick

[Wolfie Lee]

I am moving this from TheeMahn's "Ultimate Edition 4.2 Final" Thread. I was not sure I should have put it there...

Pasted from other thread:

Sorry, but I DLed the 4.2 Lite, and I still can't login. Is the username different for 4.2 Lite?

Why do we need to login to a Live session, anyway? Weird, to me, is all I'm sayin'...

Also want to know about EUFI compatibility...any word on that? Just ordered new MB (Asus M5A97 R2.0), for my new Box I'll be piecing together over the next few Month's time...anyone care to help take a look at the prospective parts list and point out any compatibility issues they might see?
I am really kinda scared that that MB won't run the AMD FX9590...? Anyone know if there is an issue there?

The M5A97 R2.0 is rated for handling 140 Watt chips.
The FX 9590 is a 220 Watt processor.
As far as I know the power VRM's of the m5a97 r2.0 are not designed for a heavy duty processor.

You will have to get a 990 series chipset for an FX 9590.
Have a look at this discussion: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id- ... -cpus.html

You will also need a higher watt PSU.

As far as UEFI is concerned, I've never faced any problems. Ultimate Edition 4.2 has an upto date kernel and packages.

Thanks a million! Burned a disk and presto, there she goes!

MOBO is on the way so gotta go with the FX8350. Can't return "open box, no I/O plate" at ebay, I'm thinkin'... Not that big a deal to me. What IS is that Tiger Direct onine chat tech said that the board WAS compatible! That burns me up, cause I would have FRIED everything. UNDER powering electronics can be worse than over powering them...though if it were THAT large a discrepancy, things would fry either way, most likely! Sometimes the digi-tronics enigineers / companies do some Real Head-scratchin' stuff...If a next-gen set of CPU's isn't compatible with a certain set of previous-tech MOBO sockets, then it SHOULD b a NO-Brainer! NEW set of cpu's >>>NEW Socket...

K! Sorry, enough rant...on with it.

PSU...gotta do the math after the LAST part is ordered, cause when the prices change, my mind follows . I have an olter Antec (seasonic) 550 W modular I had planned on using, and if it's enough power and a bit extra, then I only had to spend $10 on a SINGLE, 4 slot SATA power cable and a f Sata - to - m Molex adaptor, so NO MORE extra POUND of copper and plastic clutterin' things up in there... yeah!

With the UEFI Q, all I really want to know is can you access the UEFI GUI from the 4.2 desktop?
...don't give a HOOT about a touch screen...

Now I just gotta get my wireless router "Log-in-able". When I first got it a couple weeks ago, my lappy would NOT connect...just one little green light was it. Then I got a PCIe wireless card for the rig, and It did the Same thing. I've restet it, FROM the desktop, NOT the button. Then I put a "Password" for the ssid and "Hid" the thing. STILL no go. Hope frontier will Remotely log into it and see what the matter is, 'Cause I want my BOX across the room from the phone jack.


Anyway,

Thanks, kind sir!
Have a great day

Seasonic is probably the best brand AFAIK. 550 is enough if your graphics are not that power hungry.

UEFI has nothing to do with the OS. According to me(which is wrong) UEFI means using your mouse and keyboard in the BIOS. Yes, you can now use mouse in BIOS.

PCie wireless should work flawlessly with linux.
Check the cables of your router, if the connections are coming in and they are not defective(cables) and also check whether SSID is broadcasting.
