    Hello,

    "login" is returning "Login incorrect" when I try to login as root with
    the boot and root disk set that I've created. It never prompts for a
    password either.

    I followed the instructions detailed in the Bootdisk-HOWTO to create a
    2-disk boot+root set. I created an /etc/passwd file with one "root"
    entry that has:
    root::0::root:/:/bin/ash

    I also modified /etc/pam.d/passwd and /etc/pam.d/login to reference
    pam_permit.so.

    /etc/pam.d/{passwd,login} look identical like below:

    OTHER auth optional /lib/security/pam_permit.so
    OTHER account optional /lib/security/pam_permit.so
    OTHER password optional /lib/security/pam_permit.so
    OTHER session optional /lib/security/pam_permit.so

    I've included pam_permit.so on the root file system as well as libpam.so
    and libpam_misc.so. I've also included the other shared libraries that
    "login" requires after referencing the output from ldd.

    I've created the boot+root disk set from a working RedHat 6.1 system. It
    uses PAM v0.68.

    Any ideas or help would be great!

    Thanks,
    Nathan
