Hi, followed all your excellent instructions to change ubuntu password, including mount/remount. Password was ‘updated successfully’ but the new password is not recognized when I try normal login. Repeated process, all steps complete with no hitch, says Passwd Updated successfully but no luck logging in with the new password. Any suggestions at all? Its a laptop with Windows 10 and Ubuntu partition and when I turn the laptop on, the first step is to select Windows or Ubuntu.When the laptop os left on, after a while it goes from sleep mode to Ubuntu without my changing the OS selection, just in case this is all relevant for the Ubuntu sign on problem. Any suggestions appreciated. Thank you, Neil
