HELP Ubuntu Mate password recovery procedure
#4
Hi there! I finally had access to the files (passwd, sudoers,) as stated above, however I'm stuck on what to do next, what to look for in the file (part to edit) and what to do next after that (before the "put the SD card back to the pine board, viola")

Tried deleting the encrypted entries in the shadow file, (backed it up first) but still not able to set/reset password for ubuntu and/or root after putting it back to the pine board.
