[OSGeo-Edu] New Ominiverdi Live-DVD available

[Alex Mandel]

Hmm, looking around the web this seems to be a bug that comes up in
custom LiveCDs every once in a while.

If I switch to Ctrl-Alt-F1 I get a " user not known to the underlying
authentication module"

In particular I'm testing this on VMware Server 2 Beta.
I did a disk check which came out ok and tried to boot into Single User
mode without success. I'll try a different live CD and see what happens
and maybe poke around the VMware bug tracker.

Thanks,
Alex
