Hello!

Have just encountered such problem bugging us currently:

1.) Upon reboot of the system, (running OSF/1 v2.0b), the console login
(GUI) is not executed, instead, a login prompt is seen but on a text format.
Has also observed that upon observing the monitor message below the
screen, the screen flips to and fro mode 16 and 3.

2.) Since then, users are denied access from the host. When they try to
login and entered their corresponding passwords, they encounter this
message below:

No directory!
Loggin in with home = "/"
login: no shell: Permission denied

Changed the permissions of the /usr filesystem from a 700 to a 755 and
was successfully able to login but again, with the following error message:

login: no shell: exec format error

What seems to be missing?

Bonn
