However, when I try to login, after I type the user name ("admin", "cisco", or anything else), I get a password prompt, but I cannot type a password as IOS immediately gives me a "Failed Authentication" error.
Code: Select all
ios con0/0/CPU0 is now available
Press RETURN to get started.

Please login with any configured user/password, or cisco/cisco
