As I said in the first post on this issue: I had run the procedure to make an image of the functional BBB on which I could log into with both a username and with root. After I ran that procedure, I was then unable to log in with ANY username and password.
The caps lock is off. Yes, I know that UNIX/Linux is case sensitive. Both BBB are running a recent version of Debian with custom code for seismic data collection via a digitizer cape. I have an identical BBB with an identical digitizer cape running the same microSD image as the problem BBB that I CAN log into with both a username as well as root. So, I know the image works properly.
