Also, I have been bored lately so playing around with the linux based systems.
With the Force systems if you connect a keyboard and hold the "ALT" key in while booting it will take you to the LILO screen. From there you type: init=/bin/bash
This will get you to the command terminal in single user mode. If you type:
mount -o remount,rw /
then type:
passwd
it will ask you to make a new password. So you type what you want it to be then type it in again to confirm. Now you have root access.
So then you type"
login
It will ask for login name and you type:
root
then you type your new password
Now you type mount -o remount,rw /
and then"
vi /etc/inittab
From here you can edit the initialization file so the system does not autologin
This can be done by commenting it out by adding a # sign before x:5:respawn:/usr/sbin/autologin
So now when you reboot you have all scripts loaded and have root access.
Anytime you want to load the game you just type:
su -c /usr/X11R6/bin/startx maxx
It will load the game as normal.
But now you have control and can do things like setting ulimit to unlimited so you can do core dumps, memory dumps....you can even run it from a debugger like gdb that is already built into the system.
There is one catch to this and hopefully someone can figure this out because im stumped...
Once you load into the game and see the "megatouch force logo" you cant use Ctrl+alt+Fx (f1-f6) this normally would allow you to switch terminals (command line screens)
This is helpful for running other tools along side the game.
The only way to exploit this is to keep pressing ctrl+alt+f2 as soon as you type "su -c /usr/X11R6/bin/startx maxx"
You will get to a new terminal where you can login to root and wait a bit to go to the game window that defaults to Ctrl+alt+f3
From there you can go back and forth to other terminals.
