[meta-freescale] [Question]Cannot auto login with problem:INIT: Id "mxc1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

[Gao Yang]

Hi All,

I use imx6q sabre lite board with Yocto Morty. Every time I start my imx6
board, it always asks me to enter login: root , so I have tried auto login
with the following way:
in my /usr/bin, I create a autologin script contains this:
#!/bin/sh
exec /bin/login -f root

then in /etc/inittab, I have changed
#mxc1:12345:respawn:/bin/start_getty 115200 ttymxc
to follows
mxc1:12345:respawn:/bin/start_getty -l /usr/bin/autologin -n 115200 ttymxc1

but when I reboot the board, it doesn't auto login, and it display:
INIT: Id "mxc1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

I don't know where is wrong and how I should modify this file? I attached
my inittab file, thanks in advance!
