We can't. Lack of binaries. You have to replace /bin/login with
a real one.

You are in a UMSDOS installation, isn't true?
In muLinux there is not mknod binary, sorry. Steps for recovery:
-- boot mulinux,
mount hard-disk with installed archives (for ex: /dev/hda1) --
# mount /dev/hda1 /mnt
# cd /mnt/mulinux
# gzip -dc ROOT.gz > foo
# mount -o loop foo /a -t ext2
# cp -a /a/dev/lp0 /dev
# umount /a
# umount /mnt
# rm foo
You see, with "cp -a" we can copy everything ...
