Unable to access Webmin after setting Terms of Service Screen

stoner
Greetings:

I just updated from 8.103 to 8.201 and all when well until I noticed a new option to display a Terms of Service page at login.  After I set this to yes, Webmin just loops back to the signon screen after after the "Please Wait, Caching Objects" screen.  I forced a reboot with ACC to no avail and was hoping somone here had an idea short of reinstalling.   I thried to log on with both IE and Firefox but but responded the same.

Thanks

    Hi,
    I just wanted to give a quick update.  I was waiting to see if the 8.202 update cured the TOS problem because I did not want to lose the logs by doing a reinstall as the system would not respond to the F2 key when following the PDF instructions. Recently, I found another post about how to prevent the F2 screen from appearing at all during boot. If you change the 'splash=silent' to 'splash=verbose' that appears just before the place you type in the 'init=/bin/bash', the system will go directly to the bash prompt on boot.  From there, you can change the pw by following the PDF sheet.

    Thanks for everyone's help here and a great support community!

    Thank you for this :

    the 'splash=silent' to 'splash=verbose'


    It is still usefull for 8.3 and documentation is wrong. With slient, you stay stuck on the splash screen.
