|
=== Adding custom user accounts
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it is needed to add specific users in the target system.
|
|
To cover this requirement, Buildroot provides support for so-called
|
|
_users tables_. To use this feature, set config option
|
|
+BR2_ROOTFS_USERS_TABLES+ to a space-separated list of users tables,
|
|
regular text files following the xref:makeuser-syntax[makeusers syntax].
|
|
|
|
As shown in xref:customize-dir-structure[], the recommended location for
|
|
such files is +board/<company>/<boardname>/+.
|
|
|
|
It should be noted that if the custom users are related to a specific
|
|
application, you should set variable +FOO_USERS+ in the package's +.mk+
|
|
file instead (see xref:generic-package-reference[]).
