I am using busybox for an embedded system. I have an issue I have never seen before and was hoping someone might be able to shine a little light on it. I am using and initramfs with /init as a simlink to /bin/busybox, my /etc/inittab looks like this: # /etc/inittab # # Copyright (C) 2001 Erik Andersen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # # Note: BusyBox init doesn't support runlevels. The runlevels field is # completely ignored by BusyBox init. If you want runlevels, use # sysvinit. # # Format for each entry: <id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process> # # id == tty to run on, or empty for /dev/console # runlevels == ignored # action == one of sysinit, respawn, askfirst, wait, and once # process == program to run

I have an login: prompt on the screen. When I try to login I get the message: login: This applet requires root priviledges! On tty3 I see that it is logged that the getty exits and restarts. Anyone seen something similar? Austin Morgan -- [email protected] mailing list
