debian installation on an embedded system

Hi!

I try to do this like Kenneth described it (see http://lists.linuxppc.org/linuxppc-embedded/200103/msg00106.html).
I used an own design with an mpc860Tand the console on SCC2.

It works fine till the login. If I enter root the login apears again, and so on, no request for password. The system is stored on an IMac, so I use the password file from the mac (debian 2.2).

Any ideas?

Thanks
Gerhard
