Hello Thomas,
i created file system using buildroot (as root user) and copied rootfs.tar
to another desktop and setup NFS.
the linux boots up but does not accept any user at login, even "root"
doesnt work.
what i am doing wrong?(it works when used on same desktop, where its built).
With Regards,
Rohit Kumar

Using Buildroot as root is bad and not recommended. The only thing you
should do as root is extracting the rootfs.tar tarball to your NFS
exported directory. Is this what you have done?
See http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#_nfs_boot.
Best regards,
Thomas

Then it means you have extracted the Buildroot sources as root, or did
some other operation as root. You'd have to restart from scratch:
remove the entire Buildroot source tree, and do everything again, as a
user.

Could you post your complete boot log, and well as your
Buildroot .config file?
Thanks,
Thomas

Clearly not related. Your build as root should have worked just as well
(it's just bad to use your root account to build Buildroot).
