[Cooker] can't login to runlevel 3 ...please help
Inittab is set to boot to runlevel 3, as always. After recent upgrades, can no longer login, either as root or user (at runlevel 3). After typing password for root or user, nothing happens for 60 seconds, a sentence flashes that's too quick to read, and prompt goes back to login prompt. I then reboot to linux single or linux 1. At the "sh" prompt, I type login to get the login prompt. I cannot log in as root here, but can login as a user and then "su" to root. Not sure what is wrong. Security levels are set to normal (unchanged). /etc/securetty is unchanged (tty1-6 listed). Running all current cooker packages. I've been running Cooker for about 3 months now, upgrading along the way. The login problem occurred after upgrading to the following packages: gcc-*-2.96-0.35mdk libstdc++-*-2.96-0.35 glibc-*-2.2.1-7mdk ldconfig-2.2.1-7mdk initscripts-5.60-1mdk libltd0-*-1.3.5-10mdk libtool-1.3.5-10mdk util-linux-2.10s-1mdk m.l. __ Do You Yahoo!?
