ok well this is maybe not the perfect solution but I just spent about 4 
bloody hours to get sshd
login workin on armel :(
I'm not sure if anybody else also had this problem but maybe in the 
future I save somebody a day of debugging.


It seems the following solution is needed:
first of all delete /etc/nologin << why is that there in the first 
place?!?!?!

OK now you need to edit sshd_config.
It seems that PAM and ssh authentication clashes somehow.

I added the line "ChallengeResponseAuthentication no" to the end of 
sshd_config
There might be other solutions also.
My solution keeps "UsePAM yes"

Otherwise you can set "PasswordAuthentication no"

I tried "UsePAM no" - didn't seem to make a difference.. and according 
to output from running sshd -d -e it still used PAM.
ON the other hand editing files with echo and sed from serial terminal 
is not that easy so I might've screwed something up.


Some other things I did (in the process of trying to fix this problem)
I've set apt sources.list to "sid main contrib non-free"
I've done apt-get upgrade
I've also reinstalled openssh-server atleast 4 times :/

In the end I don't think it made much of a difference.

I hope I didn't forget about something else I did.


No maybe I can do what I wanted todo ... see if I can compile dynamically :)
