Cannot login with Linux Mint 19 via terminal












0















I cannot login via terminal (I do not know if this is because of Mint or Ubuntu).

When I enter the username, I want to enter the password, but what it does, it autoenters with an enter it goes like this:



Terminal hostname tty1

hostname login: root
Password:
_ <- then it goes right away here


No way to enter with a password. Via GUI it works, but sometimes I need to be able to use the terminal tty.

    Perhaps this (known kernel bug)? TTY doesn't wait for password
