Alright then. Sounds like you need to reset your password. Follow these steps and you'll be on your way!

  1. Reboot
  2. At boot menu, select "Ubuntu (recovery mode)"
  3. At the next menu, select "Root" using the up/down keys and hit enter.
  4. Run this command to mount the root filesystem as read/write (it starts off in read-only): mount -o remount,rw /
  5. Finally: passwd [username] (where [username] is the username of your account).
  6. reboot
