Problem with getty

Altera_Forum · ‎02-13-2007

Hi,

I try to add a login to uClinux-dist-20060803 patch V32.

I've added to busybox adduser/ addgroup / deluser / delgroup / login / su / passwd / getty / shadowpw support.

It works pretty fine when I connect to my board with a telnet client, but on the ttyS0 console it looks good but the keyboard is disabled ... http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif

I've added to /etc/inittab:

ttyS0:vt100:/sbin/getty -L 9600 ttyS0

or

ttyS0:vt100:/sbin/getty 9600 ttyS0

or with others speed ... the same.

I've tried with tinylogin : same behavior, but with an IOCTL error message.

If someone could help me ... thanks !

LeFred.

You should disable the console shell in the simple init.

Core Applications-->

[*] init

[ ] enable console shell <==

The getty in busybox might take more memory. You should try agetty, which is standalone.

[*] agetty

It works fine now ! Thanks Hippo http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif

About the used RAM memory:

Busybox/getty -> 514 k

standalone agetty -> 130 k !!

Once again ... Thanks Hippo http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif
