Hello Sachu Sanal,

There is some help on this on the Yocto Wiki (link below)

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/FAQ:How_do_I_set_or_change_the_root_password

You may change the root password using the following variables on the configuration file:

inherit extrausers

EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = "usermod -P <PASSWORD> root;"

Or add a new user

EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = "useradd -P <PASSWORD> <USERNAME>;"

Regards,

In your local.conf file:

Comment the line corresponding to debug-tweaks adding ‘#’

#EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "debug-tweaks"
