I can use buildroot to get a root filesystem, and use the cross compiler in buildroot's staging directory to build a working kernel, and the system will boot, but when I go to login, I just get another login prompt, as you can see below: RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0 VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem). Freeing init memory: 120K Welcome to the Erik's uClibc development environment. uclibc login: root Welcome to the Erik's uClibc development environment. uclibc login: default Welcome to the Erik's uClibc development environment. uclibc login: As you can see, I didn't change the login message or anything. All I've done to the root filesystem is moved /dev from an out of date (but working) root to buildroot's root. As far as I can tell, this has caused no problems. The lines in /etc/inittab that start the getty you see here are: # Put a getty on the serial port ttyAM0::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyAM0 57600 vt100 ttyAM0 is a serial port. I haven't changed /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow from the defaults that buildroot makes. The defaults are to create a user called default and give that user and the root user no password, right? I'm either misinterpreting how I should log in, or something is wrong with my system. I'm not sure if I should post my buildroot config. I'm really desperate to resolve this (I'm so close!), and any help would be greatly appreciated. Andrew Wiley
