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.
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.

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.

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.
