Prompting login and password
-
Everything is said and done. Had a lightdm issue. Fixed with sudo get and reinstall, but now requires login and password upon boot and won’t let me boot into terminal. Tried login pi, password raspberry. No dice. Any advice?

If you can’t log in with that default user and password, and you never changed it to begin with, I would seriously wipe that SD card and start over. There’s no telling what happened to it or why the password is different. And since it’s an internet connected device, that’s cause for alarm, or at least be concerned.

@KirAsh4 awesome, thank you. I was starting to think that would be the best option. At least it will be be faster the second time around, haha.
