can't log on!!

[crazyzed]

I've got problems loging on to gentoo. Everything was working ok but when I booted up gentoo the other day this happens:

When I boot up I get to the console where I must log on, but after entering either root or any of my other user accounts he thinks for a while and brings me back to where you enter the user name..I never get a chance to enter the password, and I don't get any messages, he just brings me back and pops up the same question for user to log on???
So I can't get into gentoo! What can be wrong and how can I fix this???

Thanks!!
