console, then make sure your password doesn't contain any of the characters
that are treated specially by CP:

I don't think it's a problem with the wrong password for root.  I copied the
passwd, passwd-, and shadow files from the driving system and I still get
"login incorrect".  I tried another ID I setup on my driving system and that
works.
