Hello everyone.
Yesterday I downloaded the ISO of Solus Plasma etc. to install it later.
At the first start I am asked for a password for the live user and all tips
do not work: Live User or leave the field empty etc.
The login screen appears again and again.
So what should I enter as the password?

Thank you.

  • Ok. I have found the error.
    When selecting to load the system, I used the Nvidia compatible mode.
    Now I had omitted it and it went through and is already installed.
    Thanks for your help.

I ran in to the same problem a while back. I found out you can't hit ANYTHING except the forward arrow. If you click on the password field it seems to think that is a password character. When the login screen appears just click on the forward arrow and nothing else. See if that works for you.

Thanks for your tip, but it doesn't work.
Unfortunately.

For Plasma the easiest method is to centre click on the battery icon in the right hand side of the taskbar. This will disable suspend until you reboot.
You may need to click on the small ^ arrow to show hidden icons if you are on a desktop, or a laptop with a charger fitted.
By far the best method to use when installing.
Edit: This is to be done directly after the computer has booted into the live environment and before session inactivity has timed out and presented you with a lock screen. Just keep an eye on what is going on and don't go off to make a cuppa 😉
