After doing some updates, i discovered that I can't log in locally to my
router anymore. I get the usual prompt, and try to log in like this:

This is ruttputte@home.network (Linux 586 2.4.22) <time>

ruttputte login: root

This is ruttputte@home.network (Linux 586 2.4.22) <time>

ruttputte login:

I don't even get promted for a password! I can log in fine via ssh from
my normal computer though... I think it's agetty that's causing the trouble,
but /etc/inittab seems fine:

# TERMINALS
c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty1 linux
c2:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty2 linux
c3:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty3 linux
c4:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty4 linux
c5:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty5 linux
c6:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty6 linux

Please help!
