Wubi – Ubuntu

by mrdoc . Updated 19 years, 1 month ago

So, I decided I’d give Ubuntu a spin, and read somewhere that Wubi would put me on “auto-pilot”. Well – as promised, installing Ubuntu via Wubi was like breathing…reeeall easy 🙂
Anyhow, my issue, is that at the beginning of the install, you’re prompted to put a password in for the user account (your currently logged in Windows user)…in setting a password I was trying to use a “strong” password and included the @ symbol in my password.
After booting into Ubuntu and putting in my password, I kept getting incorrect username/password…I KNOW the info I was entering is correct…so I tried to enter the password in the username field and discovered that instead of putting the @ symbol (Shift+2) I was getting the ” symbol :S … now I don’t know how to either reset the password or enter the @ symbol in my password field….any suggestions?? Pleeeaase?
