Google Chrome OS Login problem – Network not connected and offline login failed

Many of the users who have who downloaded Google Chrome OS and have tried to virtualize it via VMware / VMPlayer or VirtualBox, are facing an issue with logging in.

Google Chrome OS - Network not connected and offline login failed

What ever user name and password you are entering, it is returning that “Network not connected and offline login failed”

How to solve this issue of error “Network not connected and offline login failed” ?

If the OS has not detected any Network device then for offline login purpose, please user following user name and password.

User name :- chronos
Password :- chronos

User name :- chromeos-blog
Password :- chromeos-blog.com

Update Dec 11, 2009

It seems that the user name and password is different for different compilation of this product. Meaning the developer who is compiling can or rather need to assign an off-line user ID and password by him/her self.

As already an user have pointed out,

For the one I had I found the username was chromeos-blog and the password was chromeos-blog.com

So if you have found any other user name and password to be working, please do mention the source of the copy and off-course the user ID and password.

Hello Sir,

May I know the source from which you have obtained the copy and were you running it under virtual environment or a USB boot up version of Google OS ??

Thanks.

Didn’t work for me either.
Running it off USB, I grabbed the image from ChromeOS-Blog.com

Hi Devin,

Thanks for letting us know.

One thing I can assume is that, the user name and password seems to be different in different compilation. Meaning the developer who is compiling can or rather need to assign an off-line user ID and password by him/her self.

I wish Google should have given a recommended default password or at-least the person who is releasing, should have put it up there at the download page.

I found a legit Google OS that had healthy seeds and legit comments. I booted it from the VMware Workstation and I tried logging in with my google user name and that didn’t work. So coming to you guys and trying the user names posted here, that didn’t work. I had the NAT set and then I tried to bridge the connection.

What is the solution guys?

Hi everybody,
This os why we have to use, First this not OS, it is looking like browser. for we have IE, Mozilla, opera etc. There is no desktop. why they are publishing i dont know. bakwas OS……
Dont use or dont try also. if you open it through vmware or virtual box, first you can see chrome browser thats it…nothing else.
