For Setting Root Password as well as SSH

[asadullah4571]

Dear Team,

Could you please guide us on how to set the Linux terminal and SSH login password for the STM32MP257F series platform?

We would appreciate it if you could share the required steps or documentation for configuring the password.

Hi,

password hash could be computed on your PC as well.

maybe try with that line which, according to this site, should set password to 'linux'

EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS += "usermod  -p '\$5\$VVkW56RF8jYiBDze\$5v1V.z8wUkCL00T9.MNTsA4iAGyqk1.IaYq/hUMKnM1'  root;"
