Hello,
I've just successfully built my own kernel and when the login prompt
appeared and I tried to log in as root it told me ...
Root login refused on this terminal
What's up? I could do this before building the kernel and I did not
notice any obvious entries in my kernel config file which suggested allowing
or permitting what I was trying to do. Anybody else seen this? I really
like logging in as root. Its an enormous rush, you see. Such a feeling of
POWER! Anyways, if anybody has any suggestions for fixing this I would be
most appreciated to hear them.
Thanks.
Frank Ficnar
