    142 141  ??? question "I am getting a 500/503 error when I try and access the main KVM page!"
    143  - Older images have this issue due to yaml syntax, it's advised to reflash with the newest image
    144 142   This maybe due to a few of the following:
    145  - Missing /etc/kvmd/override.yaml file, to resolve `cd /etc/kvmd ; touch override.yaml`
    146  - Bad yaml syntax, edit your override.yaml file and undo what you did and restart PiKVM

    164 163   * Only USB OR the RJ-45 serial connector will work, you can't use them together!
    165 164   * If you disable the service permanently, you can't recover your device via serial console if you need this.
    166  - * There are some reports, that you need to remove "ttyAMA0" from /boot/cmdline.txt, but this is not needed on new installations.

    219 220  ??? question "How do I get root access in the web terminal?"
    220 221   The web terminal works with the account `kvmd-webterm`. This is a regular user with no administrator privileges. In addition, `sudo` and login are disabled for this user for security reasons. To get `root` access, you need to use the `su -` command (minus is important) and **enter the root password**.
