[arm-allstar] Help with finding location of Static IP (V4) address.

[David McGough]

Larry,

I presume this the SD card in question is from an HamVoIP RPi
installation?  If so, since you can read the card, these are the basic
instructions to recover the root password should resolve the problem, so
you can get logged-in to change the IP address settings.

The site that hosts the repeater, had their router go down and has a contract with some business service. It was replaced and all IP's changed . Since we had a static IP address, we cannot talk with the router..It would be a simple change of the IP address from 192.168.1.40Â  to 192.168.0.40...as we did that with another repeater at the same site. 

I can read the SD card on my linux machine.. I cannot log in root. I've tried the CTRL-ALT-F9 on boot  up and It takes me into CLI> prompt, which runs without logging in. But you can't exit to the main allstar menu..
I Just need to know where the IP address is kept, or the password.. I could copy or edit either. The rest of the SD card was configured before my time and auto connects to K-link permanently.
