07:42.22flipbedHi! I have compiled an embedded linux zImage from the latest vanilla release. I have transfered it and installed it though serial port to a arcom viper-lite kit. After I booted with the zImage I am asked with a login but I have no idea what to write :( Any suggestions on what to do?
07:42.57flipbedI am connected the the viper-lite kit through the serial port and communicate with minicom.
07:46.48Russit isn't a kernel issue, its a user space issue
07:47.57flipbedhmm ok, is it some kind of setting in redboot maybe? The strange thing is that the old linux kernel that was included on the board can log in without any problems :/
07:50.20Russwell then the command line is booting a different user space
07:51.22flipbeddo you have any links on how to configure the userspace? I guess its some kind of image command when using exec?
07:59.56Russwhere did you get your user space from?
08:00.47flipbedI guess it was default on the viper-kit since I can log in on the old dist installed. When I try with the same login, the login prompt shows again.
09:20.05RussI don't know what a viper-kit is, but you could check the documentation
09:53.32flipbedhttp://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=arcom%20viper%20manual&source=web&cd=4&ved=0CDkQFjAD&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eol.ucar.edu%2Frtf%2Ffacilities%2Fisff%2FLOCAL_access_only%2Fndaq%2FManuals_DataSheets%2FArcomManuals%2FVIPER_RedBoot_AEL_QS.pdf&ei=uf5JT4TjOKKP4gSz0tTfDQ&usg=AFQjCNE9OIfQci0uklz2PuqbteGh1ULH2w&cad=rja
09:53.38flipbedlol thats a long link.
09:53.49flipbedbut that is the quick manual
10:23.41ashesi am doing high school now, at age 33. i have 98% in math (pre-calculus) grade 10, and 95% in english grade 12. i want to know what i should shoot for. i like philosophy, physics, and theology, but none of these fields really earn much salary compared to a masters in business
10:24.15ashesi also like law
10:25.37ashesmy english teacher says i am very good with logic
10:27.44ashesphysics and law have been my best ideas

15:43.34flipbedwmat, I have tried that, aswell as root:toor and several other combinations. The login reacts to root:arcom with saying: "login[123]: root login on 'ttyS0'" then it prompts for login again. If I try something else for username/pwd it just prompts for login directly.
15:44.11flipbedfor login again*
15:48.05flipbedbeen working on this for over 12h now, its starting to drive me nuts :/
15:57.34flipbedwhen using the old image and trying to log in with the incorrect information it actually says that its incorrect while on our new build it doesnt say anything at all.

19:26.03wmatflipbed: what does /etc/securetty contain?
19:26.47wmatflipbed: on your host, I mean
19:27.50wmatflipbed: if ttyS0 isn't in there do this: echo ttyS0 >> /etc/securetty
19:28.18wmatflipbed: then try logging into your target board again with root:arcom
