Looping at login

[Clint Thomas]

Hey Guys,

I was told this has been a previous issue with Busybox, but i'm having
trouble logging into my linux machine. When I try to login to the
machine, this is the text I receive.

Mounted devfs on /dev
Freeing unused kernel memory: 44k init

it keeps looping through the login process without letting me in. I am
running PPC Linux 2.4.26, and built a BusyBox configuration with getty
and login built into the binary. Is there any reason BusyBox would cause
this problem? One item mentioned on the linuxppc-embedded list was that
it may be related to security and BusyBox somehow. Thanks!
