Hi everyone, |
2 |
|

I'm trying to use the filesystem obtained here below as an nfs root for |
4 |
my board. |
5 |
|
6 |
${MIRROR}/experimental/arm/embedded/stages/stage3-arm-uclibc-softfloat-20050811.tar.bz2 |

Originally, I ran into some trouble when I allowed the default init |
9 |
routine to run, because it froze on 'starting local'. I eventually |
10 |
discovered that was because my main serial device should be /dev/ttyAM0 |
11 |
instead of /dev/ttyS1 in /etc/inittab. I fixed that, and then found that |
12 |
I couldn't login as root, even after adjusting /etc/password to |
13 |
|
14 |
root::0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash |
15 |
... |
16 |
|
17 |
I wrote a very simple init script to mount things and run /bin/sh, but |
18 |
that generates 'kernel panic - attempt to kill init!' when I exit. I'd |
19 |
still like to use the default init scripts for now, so that inittab |
20 |
respawns a login prompt of some kind, but for some reason none of the |
21 |
password-changing methods I'm aware of have worked. |
22 |
|
23 |
I've even tried to erase the root password entry in |
24 |
/etc/{passwd,shadow}*, but that didn't work. I've tried changing the |
25 |
password to nothing or 'password' using /bin/passwd, but that also |
26 |
doesn't work! |
27 |
|
28 |
This is completely puzzling for me at the moment. |

ack! plz help! |
