What password is for Sitara Starter Kit?

Hi,

The Sitara Starter Kit has no password when I login in at UART serial terminal, i.e. after I enter: root,

m335x-evm login: root

it will login without asking for password.

Now, I want to run a rsync command:

u64@u7696:~$ rsync -rl --delete-after --safe-links pi@192.168.0.112:/{lib,usr} $HOME/raspberrypi/rootfs
pi@192.168.0.112's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
pi@192.168.0.112's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
pi@192.168.0.112's password:
Permission denied (publickey,password).
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver]
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.0]
u64@u7696:~$

it asks for the password. I have tried with direct enter, or something else, all fails.

How to solve this problem?

Thanks,

  • Hi Jeff,

    I think the following line from your console:

    requires the password for the pi login. As far as I know the default password for raspberry pi is: raspberry.

    Best Regards,

  • You are right about my original question. I did not modify the command to the SK board yet. After change it to:

    u64j@u64j-696:~/y-2014-Fid$ rsync -rl --delete-after --safe-links root@192.168.0.112:/{lib,usr} $HOME/rootfs
    sh: rsync: command not found
    rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver]
    rsync error: remote command not found (code 127) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.0]
    u64j@u64j-696:~/y-2014-Fid$

    The host PC has rsync installed, while the target doesn't. I think the above command runs the host rsync, is it correct?

    If the target needs to install rsync, how to do that?

    Thanks,
