Root looks correct.  As part of the reinstall, mkpasswd was run -- it looks
fine.  The one change I made (changing shell to /bin/bash) doesn't affect
the outcome, and once I'm connected (via password authentication) everything
works fine.

Here's the part of "ssh -v -2 -l root ..." pertaining to authentication:

debug1: send SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST
debug1: service_accept: ssh-userauth
debug1: got SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT
debug1: authentications that can continue:
publickey,password,keyboard-interactive
debug1: next auth method to try is publickey
debug1: try pubkey: /home/K02189/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: authentications that can continue:
publickey,password,keyboard-interactive
debug1: next auth method to try is password

I double-checked and the entry in authorized_keys2 is the (generated w/
latest openssh 2 days ago) same as exists on the client.  authorized_keys2
is mode 0600.  Owner of authorized_keys2 is root:None (None is what groups
reports for root).
