Mounting a Hibernated Drive
I went back to working on a problem where I couldn't get
a Windows XP system to resume from hibernation
1 by trying
to examine the
hiberfil.sys file, but wasn't able
to get much further today.

Root Access Using Ubuntu Live CD
I thought I would try
Ubuntu, so I booted
a system from a Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop CD I created from the .iso file
I downloaded. The system didn't have access to a
DHCP
server, so I needed to manually set the network information for the system.
But I didn't know the default password assigned to the root account by
Ubuntu. I discovered at
Ubuntu Default Root Password or the sudo way that the
root account is created without a predefined password and that you can't
log into it. The suggested action for gaining root access was to use
sudo sh, which did give me root access. I was then able to
assign an IP address, network mask, and default gateway address.
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0
# route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0
