no console login after sysupgrade from 7.0 to 7.1



Hi All,

I recently upgraded my 7.0 (amd64) to 7.1 using sysupgrade and although I was very cautious during the upgrade process when answering all the questions about the config file changes, I may have done something wrong. So currently I cannot logon as root via the console but interestingly enough I can logon as normal user to X (started by xdm) and in an X terminal I can switch to root using su which accepts the root's pw. If I try to log on to the console as root, the logon simply hangs -does not even ask for a password. I haven't tried the console logon as normal user but will do this evening. Till then, if anyone has any hint, I'd appreciate that!

Thanks & regards,
r0ller
