For some requirement I wante to add some new users in /etc/passwd .
I tried doing it in couple of way but none of it worked out well
I tried to patcth the /etc/passwd file but getting few errors while
bitbaking my image.
Paul Eggleton suggests me that patching /etc/passwd file won't work
Then I tried doing it in below way
SRC_URI += "file://passwd"
do_install_append() {
install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/base-passwd ${D}${sysconfdir}
passwd/passwd${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}${sysconfdir}/passwd
install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/passwd ${D}${sysconfdir}/passwd
}
With above method I am able to add new user to /etc/passwd file
but testing this image gives me trouble and now when I login to board
it is asking password.
Now would like to know what are the ways to add new users in
/etc/passwd file in yocto.
Thanks
Amit
