big problem with users (gnome-lite)

[freaks]

hello,
i installed gnome-lite and i have some problems
after booting i can only log with root user without password
in the boot sequence the system give me some informations like
:"can't find samba user, or my username"
i can't log with my user
but if have a the same username the sytem say this user already exist

what is the problem ?

are you using a login manager? i know gnome-lite doesnt set one up by default. can you login to the console with any users other than root?
did you update your system and overwrite your passwd file while running mergemaster?

did you update your system and overwrite your passwd file while running mergemaster?

yes i made this

Select > Configure > Distributions > Src > Select Base, Sys and all other required source code > Ok > Ok > Select Internet > FTP Main site and install the source code.
cd /usr/src
# make buildkernel 
make installkernel

cd /usr/src
# make buildkernel 
make installkernel

So you only build a kernel. You didn't update anything as you just installed the same kernel as the install did.

As for your users, have a look at /etc/passwd. See if those accounts are still there. Do NOT edit /etc/passwd directly. Either use vipw(8), pw(8) or adduser(8).
