Telnetd and Read-Only root partition

Yes, it is /dev/ttyp0.

But I've got another problem: once a telnet session is began, I can't do a su 
command:
There are two error messages in /var/log/messages:

login: unable to determine TTY name, got /dev/UNKNOWN

and

login: initgroups failed for user `admin`


Any suggestion ?

Thanks

Guillaume
