Setting the root pasword is done in a target-finalize hook, so we do not need to enforce a dependency from the skeleton onto host-mkpasswd. Dropping that dependency will simplify making skeleton a virtual package (in up-coming changes). Instead, it is now selected as any other package. As such, it is guaranteed to be built before target-finalize. This however introduces a slight change in behaviour: previously, host-mkpasswd would only be built if we needed to hash the root password from its plain-text value. Now, host-mkpasswd is always built as soon as the root password is non-empty, even if already pre-hashed. Since host-mkpasswd is a really tiny weeny package bundled in Buildroot, with only two C files, built as a single unit with a single gcc call, the overhead is really minimal. Compared to the simplifications this will allow in the skeleton packages (plural: common, sysv, systemd, custom) to come, this overhead is acceptable. Yet another simplification, even if small, to ease providing multiple skeletons. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
