Hello, I finally solved my problem. Here is how I did it for the record :
First, I used the Angstrom distribution 2015.06 (Yocto 1.8). I had no more issues with the raspberry pi firmwares not compatible with my model of Raspberry Pi. For the login issue, I had to mount the root partition of the target on the build machine, and I patched the etc/shadow file with the following patch. It adds a password to the root account (pw: root). And it finally let me login! I am now writing a recipe to apply the patch automaticaly. But I still do not understand why it would not work before. A blank password is supposed to be legit, isn't it? --- shadow_original 2015-04-27 15:45:09.055446002 +0200 +++ shadow_new 2015-04-27 15:44:56.467446069 +0200 @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -root:*:16552:0:99999:7::: +root:$1$xyz$YCCZsvYCmSe.qXSOYUWkJ/:16552:0:99999:7::: daemon:*:16552:0:99999:7::: bin:*:16552:0:99999:7::: sys:*:16552:0:99999:7::: On Mon, Apr 27, 2015 at 10:31 AM, qrthur sfz <arthur.s...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I am trying to run Angstrom on a Raspberry Pi B+.
