But you actually don't need it to implement autologin. It's simpler than I originally thought.

Create a new file /root/autologin.sh with these contents:
Code:
#!/bin/sh

exec /bin/login -f root
Modify line starting with "tty1::" of /etc/inittab to look like this:
Code:
tty1::respawn:/sbin/getty -l /root/autologin.sh -n 38400 tty1
Done.
Issue kill -HUP 1 to reload inittab and logout on tty1 (you'll need to kill the java program first) to see it in action.

Tested in VirtualBox with Kubrick 1.1.

BTW Kubrick works in VirtualBox. You need to have the Extension Pack installed and manually select which USB device should be passed through to the machine - once for the USB downloader mode and once again for the fastboot mode.
@dsmid

After dismal failure of my laptop to boot from the ISO I have got Kubrick working under VirtualBox with extensions as far as the fastboot screen but am stuck at "Waiting for Device". Although my KT is showing up as a USB device but I get an error message that VB can't connect it to the host as the KT is busy with another request. I'd be so grateful if you have any guidance.
