cannot log on as root after upgrade

[Li, Qing]

I guess my problem has something to do with pam
configuration but I know little of pam.
 
I could log in as a normal user then "su" successfully.
So I went into /etc/pam.d and removed all of the services
except "other", and after a reboot I could log in as
root.
 
Thanks,

	The generic path for recovery is as follows:
	
	- Boot up in single user mode.
	- Manually configure network interface(s).
	- cvsup again.
	- "make world" in /usr/src, still in single-user mode.
	- mergemaster -i
	- boot into multi-user mode.
	
	Give that a whirl...
