I recently enabled telnet via nickelmenu after installing the latest firmware on a KL2 (4.38.23429 8/18/25). None of the username/password combinations I've seen on this board work. Is there a new one?

I've tried usernames kobo, admin, and root, and either blank passwords or passwords matching the username. They are all rejected as "login incorrect".
