Description Matthew McClintock 2011-10-03 11:06:13 UTC
add users, set passwords from hob
Comment 1 Belen Barros Pena 2013-03-01 10:51:44 UTC
This is a perfectly valid feature request, but I wonder if our existing GTK Hob is the tool to deliver it. Hob was conceived with a limited scope: a simple tool to assist new Yocto Project users in the process of running simple builds (the kind of builds you start with).

I think we should consider tackling this on the web interface project. 

Marking as needinfo in the meantime.

See bug 4074.  A method to add/modify users and groups is needed generically.  Once this method has been generated, the hob UI should be modified to allow the user to control it.

At this point, work will take place on toaster, not hob, so marking as won't fix.
