[SLUG] Login wierdness

[Jon Biddell <jon@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm setting up a very minimal system at the moment (no X, docs, etc) to act 
as a gateway machine - but when I enter "root" as the login name, I don't 
even get as far as the password prompt, I get "incorrect login" and back to 
the prompt.

What have I stuffed up ??
