In that case my guess would be you did not set up your USB stick as you should have. The USB stick should have a folder named 'install' in the root. Can you verify this?

Hi guys, I've exactly the same problem. Can't remember my login name for my personal acount nor for the admin. I also can't connect through the ssh-client since the login is refused.

So currently I'm trying to reinstall the os in order to reset all the login information and start over.

Put the folder named 'install' on top of the memory stick, formated it first in fat32, and followed the instruction as shown in the manual. Unfortunately I'm not able to say if the memory stick has a partition table.
Nor I'm able to take another one since I have only this one :(

So switchgott, what did you did differently that it worked?

regards

I'm sorry for the circumstances, but the problem is now also solved for me :) A friend of mine gave spontaneously an other memory stick. So the problem was the missing partition table i guess
