[ug-bosug] Re: Problem with Solaris Express Community Release b50

[Madhu K R]

Hi Anand,
    Bash is not in /sbin/bash. It is at /bin/bash. That is the reason 
why you are not able to login .
Now you have to load in either failsafe mode and remount the solaris 
partition and change your /etc/password file or boot from belenix and 
change it in the harddisk.
You don't need to reinstall to get away from this problem.
