You probably have an "/etc/nologin" file (containing this text you
see) that wasn't deleted by the bootscripts.  The presence of this
file is supposed to prevent *any* non-root logins.  (See the
nologin(5) manpage.)

Any chance you're running this machine in single-user mode or
in some other nonstandard configuration?

Assuming the standard runlevel (number 2) and standard Debian startup
scripts, the "/etc/nologin" file should have been removed by
"/etc/rc2.d/S99rmnologin" link to "/etc/init.d/rmnologin".
