In the past, on my Virtualbox VM preview window would scroll through a bunch of text as the VM was booting up… then, eventually just stop scrolling; leaving a bunch of text on the preview screen (without accepting any keyboard input). I figured this was normal behavior since the Home Assistant web interface was fully functional and everything within Home Assistant; also, I wouldn’t get any log errors during and after the VM booted up.
However, just recently, when my VM boots up (and the respective preview window scrolls through a bunch of text), the screen text will eventually clear, then display the below prompt:
Welcome to Home Assistant
HASSIO login:
At this point, I am able to manually login as root in the preview window, if I wish to. Home Assistant is also fully functional in the web interface. There are no errors in the log during and after Home Assistant boots up; same as before.
I am curious… which way one is the correct behavior? Am I supposed to get a HASSIO login prompt in my VM preview window once the VM fully boots up? If not, is there something I need to do to fix this?
