changing default root password

davidzhou — Wed, 11 Apr 2018 17:55:02 GMT

I have imx6ul dev board

I tried to add a password for yocto login.
steps I did:
create an MD5 password
Copied the generated hash output string and replace the MD5_ROOT_PASSWD with it.
in the local.conf file, removed debug-tweaks extra_image_features
rebuild the images.

after installed the images, at prompt
login:
type root, password: is not prompted

Then I added
useradd - p 'password hash string' admin
after rebuild and install the images, at prompt
login: admin
Password:

it shows the password, but returns login incorrect

What did I miss?

Thank you,

David
