[Buildroot] Cannot login a shell

[Tiju Jacob]

Hi Erik,

I have compiled a kernel, version linux-2.6.24.4 using the toolchain at http://cross-lfs.org/view/clfs-sysroot/arm/ which is not a uClibc version. Then I have compiled a cpio file system using buildroot which has it own version of uClibc.

When I try to boot these images, I am not able to login. It comes back to the same login prompt when I login as root.

Output:
....
....
NET: Registered protocol family 1
NET: Registered protocol family 17
registered taskstats version 1
Freeing init memory: 1108K

Welcome to the Erik's uClibc development environment.
uClibc login: root

Ihave tried compiling with different versions but it remains the same.It actually spawns a shell, but it comes back to the login. It is thesame with busybox as well as bash.

Kindly help me.

Thanks in Advance.
Tiju
