    What username did you use? Did you create a user account for yourself or did you just choose the root password?

    I don't know?

    I remember typing in a password during installation set up, but I don't think it was for a user account?

    Everything gives me the green "OK" and then I get to "Localhost login:" with a blinking cursor??.

    Not sure what to do - any help is appreciated

    Try logging in with "root" as the username and the password that you chose.

    Maybe you should try reading the installation instructions the next time? ;-)
