[arm-allstar] First time config problem

[David McGough]

Tim,

As the first setup step, did you allow the RPi2 to update to the latest
packages? There was an issue logging in from the console sometime back
that you may be encountering which showed up if you had no network 
connectivity.

I get through the "first time config" using the built in script with no trouble. I have changed the root password and not changed the root password (I've re-burnt the sd card many times in the last week). I have also changed the hostname to allstar from alertpi. The rest of the set up goes smooth, answering all questions and changing what needs changed through the ASTERISK setup. I have done and not done the simpleusb set up on different tries. When I answer yes to reboot the system I cannot get logged back in. On reboot I see Arch Linux 4.14.31-1-ARCH (tty1) then under that I get allstar login:. I use root, root or root and the password I've changed it to in set up and can not get logged in. When I press "enter" after the PW I see a couple lines of text flash on screen and then return to the login prompt
