Hi , do you forgot your ubuntu password, if yes then let change it . I have try this method before and it work. Although not sure what is the command is about but if you follow the step below then you can change your ubuntu user password. when start you computer press / hold the shift which will bring you to recovery menu Then choose the root which bring you to a command screen. Type in  "mount -o rw,remount /" without the quote Then you need to know your username which can find it by type in "ls /home" without the quote. The username will be show at this directory Then type in "passwd yslab" then will prompt to ask you type in new password. key in you new password then retype it . key in "exit" to exit. Done, this is all the step you needed to change your password. =D feel free to leave some comment if you have another method to get back /change your password . =)

Remove Ubuntu Startup option

Recently I have installed the windows 8.1 dual boot with Ubuntu. However , the Ubuntu has can't be start up. However when I open My computer, it will still have the start up option . The first thought was uninstall the Ubuntu (Ps: I use wubi installer to install Ubuntu) . After Uninstall the Ubuntu, I restart the computer and found that the startup option of Ubuntu still at there. Ok , let skip the story part to the solution: Run CMD.exe as Administrator (UAC) bcdedit bcdedit/delete {identifier} Example : bcdedit/delete {347989da-7c6c-11e3-bece-001e3123bbd6} In my case is using chinese word ... so in english word should be is identifier. Thank for reading my blogs.Leave comment if you have any others suggestion to remove boot option
