Re: [Cooker] 2.3.99 kernel and login problems.
You can add: tty1 tty2 and vc/1 vc/2 Then both kernels (2.2/2.3) will work). I posted about mounting shm from fstab, but maybe this isnt good, we must do "grep shm /proc/filesystems>/dev/null" because shm will fail when booting to a 2.2 kernel. We need to be able to handle both 2.2 and 2.3 well.

So try vc/? but ? may be insecure. There are also patches for ttyname and/or util-linux around. i hope glibc-2.2 come to live soon. A different viewpoint : this can be seen as a security feature: root may only be reached from a legally connected user (but then, DrakX should enforce that at least 1 user is created) > Dont run msec batch because it edits /etc/securetty and remming othervalues > than tty*. > I hope it's helped you. > Michal > > > > I just tried 2.3.99 with alans latest ac patch and i got problem. > > I can't login as root from the console. > > In the log I get > > login: FAILD LOGIN 1 FROM (null) FOR root, Authentication failure. > > > > > If i boot 2.2.15pre17 again it works... > >

Hi! A few weeks ago I wrore solution of this, anyway: In /etc/securetty already is: tty1 tty2 ... To /etc/securetty add lines: vc/1 vc/2 vc/3 ... In case that this doesn't help you, try: 1 2 3 ... Dont run msec batch because it edits /etc/securetty and remming othervalues than tty*. I hope it's helped you.

Any help ?? There are some problems with ppp in latest kernels. Are you using hackkernel? It is 2.3.99-pre4-pre3, and should include some ppp fixes. > I get > an http error during boot to late for dmesg something about shm file > system??

[Cooker] 2.3.99 kernel and login problems.
I just tried 2.3.99 with alans latest ac patch and i got problem. I can't login as root from the console. In the log I get login: FAILD LOGIN 1 FROM (null) FOR root, Authentication failure. If i boot 2.2.15pre17 again it works... /M -- _|_|_|_|_|_|_|_| _|_|_|_| _|_| _|_| _|_| _|_|_| _|_|_|_|_| _|_|_| _|_| _|_|_| _|_| _|_|_| _| _|_| _|_|_| _|_|_|_| --==** LIVETS VATTEN **==--
