Hi community,

I have an issue with changing password on OpenWRT.

I booted from eMMC on imx6dl based custom board.

Now, there is only one session i.e, through UART and no ssh sessions.
I logged in and changed passwd using

root@Ramana:~# passwd
Changing password for root
New password:
Bad password: too short
Retype password:
Password for root changed by root

Now there is no passwd+ file in /etc

Now I power cycled(hard reboot) the board and found that passwd+ file is
there in /etc

Now I cannot change the passwd

root@US16SIQC:~# passwd
Changing password for root
New password:
Bad password: too short
Retype password:
passwd: can't create '/etc/passwd+': File exists
passwd: can't update password file /etc/passwd

The only way to recover is to delete that file and change passwd.

Is this an issue with eMMC file system?. My root filesystem is of ext4

Plz help

Thanks,
Ramana
