Thans to Vihan, I got the Etch DVDs and installed them the same night. Since I never login as root, I did not check it then but now I tried to login as root w/o passwd but it does not login. Do you still face this problem?
A warning to all those planning to install etch as production. Don't do it for desktops. The GUI is quite buggy while the command line part is good and can be used. My Open-Office does a disco dance whenever I open an existing text file. Its tool buttons keep doing the disappearing act randomly. The Kde Control Center had only two links for 'Network' and 'Peripherials'. The Lost and Found has a full collection of package links.
Err, if there are things in lost and found, then there was a major file system or drive issue you had. This is most likely to be a local issue than anything else.
