default root password

[Herman Hoekstra]

Hello everybody,

I am new at linux have ubuntu running on n old windows laptop

now I found a new use for my old TVBOX i have lying around

 

I need some help logging in to my tv box

it is a T95ZPlus with a 912 soc

I am booting Armbian_community_25.11.0-trunk.519_Aml-s9xx-box_plucky_edge_6.18.0-rc6_xfce_desktop.img.xz

I copy u-boot-s905x2-s912 to u-boot.ext

My extlinux.conf looks like this

 

label Armbian_community
  kernel /Image
  initrd /uInitrd
 fdt /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxm-t95z-plus.dtb

 append root=UUID=8ba6ae05-2bb2-4d2c-bba6-ce6cd91ed2cb rootflags=data=writeback console=ttyAML0,115200n8 console=tty0 rw no_console_suspend consoleblank=0 fsck.fix=yes   fsck.repair=yes net.ifnames=0

 

The system runs

but after booting Armbian_community 25.11.0-trunk.519 plucky tty1

it gives me this prompt aml-s9xx-box loging

the tutorial tells Basic OS configuration is conducted at first boot. You are asked to set a root password, normal user 

But my system asked for a login

so i am stuck

I hope someone have had this problem and can give a solution
