Hello all;
I am trying to get my BBB to automatically login as root after it boots.
This is the image I am running:
"Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-bone70 #1 SMP Fri Jan 23 02:15:42 UTC 2015 armv7l
GNU/Linux"
After some Google, I found several methods that appear to be out of date.
They all suggest modifying the "/etc/inittab" file as below:
First install rungetty using the following command
#apt-get install rungetty
you need to edit the /etc/inittab file
#nano /etc/inittab
look for the following line
comment out
#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
and add
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/rungetty tty1 --autologin YOUR_USER_NAME
or
1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f root tty1 </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1
none of the above work :-(
I'm sure this is do able, I just don't know how to with this image.
Thanks;
Bill
