[BusyBox] Problem with getty/login

[Matthias Auchmann]

Hi List!
 
I have a problem with my getty/login/init part of busybox.
 
When I start my system and try to log in on ttyS0 (first serial port),
which is my console, I enter my username ('root'), which is echoed twice
(first strange thing). 
Then I enter a password, but whatever I do, nothing happens, until the
login procedure finally times out after 60 seconds.
Then, a new login-prompt is printed, and this time, everything works
fine -> so the problem only occurs at the first login at ttyS0
It seems like login never gets the password I entered...
 
I do NOT have this problem on ttyS1, where everything works out fine,
even the first time!
 
Here is the what I get:
 
-----snip------
 
emblinux login: root
root
    Password:
              Login timed out after 60 seconds.
 
Welcome to ...
 
emblinux login: root
Password:
login[18]: root login  on `ttyS0'
 
-----snip------
 
I tried some options in inittab, but nothing seems to help!
 
I guess it's some trivial thing I forgot to configure, so any help would
be appreciated!
 
greetz,
 
Matthias
