Attempting to setup wireless network, stuck at HOSTNAME and password login prompt on boot

I chose to setup my network via NetworkManager after running the netconfig command. I wasn't sure what the HOSTNAME and domain needed to be set to, so I made a HOSTNAME and set the domain to 'local'. Upon rebooting, I am met with the prompt: HOSTNAME login: followed by password:.

Have I set up the configuration wrong? Alternatively what should I be entering for the HOSTNAME and password?

If I have set it up wrong is there a way that I can exit the prompt or will I need to reinstall Slackware?latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=yIapIiLjuMY:cY8f1Tmmk7Q:F7zBnMy latest?i=yIapIiLjuMY:cY8f1Tmmk7Q:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=yIapIiLjuMY:cY8f1Tmmk7Q:gIN9vFwyIapIiLjuMY
