Did you overwite /etc/shadow with /etc/shadow.rpmnew?

Hi, I had the exact same behaviour also on a VBox x86-64 3beta4. I accepted systematically all .rpmnew without knowing the role of the different files (except for /etc/hosts that I use for local website development) I can log as root when starting with failsafe mode, but I don't know how to correct this yet.

Thierry may know better solution.
rpmdrake-5.48 will prevent this to happen again
