Hello Peter, I have already tried many things to pass the hash escaped to the extrausers-bbclass.
But I have not found a way to set the password with EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS. Do you know a working variant?

Use '\\\$' to escape the '$' token. There are some levels of evaluation of the expression and that's the reason for multiple '\'. Just iterate until you have the correct string in the shadow file, also check the log.do_rootfs where you can see the parameters to usermod. /Peter
