Why I cannot type in login credentials in the terminal?
Issue
- Cannot login using the terminal.
- Username not visible when typing it in the "Login:" prompt.
- Only a single character is read from the keyboard while logging in the system using a terminal. It seems as if the
Enter
key was pressed immediately.
