Beginners Questions • Re: [Newb] SLIM Failed to execute login command

Good day all.

Just want to share what was find out during yesterday.
During the Linux boot when the grub menu pops ups, there are 3 options to choose,
Lightcontrol (normal mode)
LightcontrolServicemode
Lightcontrol Advanced options

When the issue happened it was not possible to boot Linux in any of those mode, following by "Failed to execute login command".
On the first steps of troubleshooting it was advise to check free space. It was done and found out that /dev/sda2 was 100% full. Than 8% of space was emptied.
After that I always try to boot Linux in normal mode and get same error. It was my mistake.
Yesterday I choose Service mode during start up and Linux successfully booted. Normal mode is still not working.

Not sure what is the difference between service and normal mode. Can assume that in service mode user have more rights.

Also in maker documentation was mentioned, that only one directory where files can be saved is /home/led/backup. It can explain why I can't create files.

For now workstation is working in service mode, till new arrives.

Thank you for everybody involved, especially for @FreewheelinFrank. Now I know a bit more about Linux that before.
