Hi folks,

I created a initramfs with buildroot.
I attach my config

It works. But it requires a password which I have not configured and I wanna
have no password.

I investigate in forums and find out 
 
http://buildroot-busybox.2317881.n4.nabble.com/Console-login-root-needing-a-
password-td15155.html

http://buildroot-busybox.2317881.n4.nabble.com/Bug-5366-New-can-t-login-root
-or-default-td30020.html

I followed all recommendations

- taking output/images/rootfs.cpio
-  BR2_PACKAGE_UTIL_LINUX_LOGIN_UTILS not defined

but only the following solution worked

#ttyS0::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 115200 vt100 # GENERIC_SERIAL
ttyS0::respawn:/bin/sh  # GENERIC_SERIAL

overlooked something ?

regards,
s.altunbas
