This refuses to work for me:
nurse:/mnt/z/fai/files/etc# ls -l passwd
total 4
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 1463 Jan 10 18:53 USERS
nurse:/mnt/z/fai/files/etc# ls -ld passwd
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 72 Jan 12 18:00 passwd

Basically I can do it in a separate script, I mean, write the
passwd and group files, but is this a feature that passwd etc
are not copied?

This is mildly annoying :)

Thanks!
