I have 2 machines running Mandrake 7.0, one of which refuses to allow a
login as root. Any password, even the correct one, is "Incorrect". You have to
log in as a user, then su to root. This woks reliably.
The machine in question is an AMD K6/2-350, 64MB of ram, 4.3 Gig for
linux. and running an SiS 6326 video card. This latest installation is a
reinstall after an upgrade from 6.1 failed miserably. The problem was present
under 6.1 as well.
Any ideas? I have an AMD i586 running here, and you can log in as root fine.
