This is completed.

This is what I did.

Did a new build with NO_BUILDWORLD and NO_BUILDKERNEL commented.

To create a root password:

chroot /usr/local/freesbie-fs/ /usr/bin/passwd root

Then:
cp /usr/local/freesbie-fs/etc/passwd /$BASDIR/extra/customroot/etc/ 
passwd
cp /usr/local/freesbie-fs/etc/master.passwd /$BASDIR/extra/customroot/ 
etc/master.passwd
cp /usr/local/freesbie-fs/etc/pwd.db /$BASDIR/extra/customroot/etc/ 
pwd.db
cp /usr/local/freesbie-fs/etc/spwd.db /$BASDIR/extra/customroot/etc/ 
spwd.db

I'm not sure If I needed all those files, I think maybe master.passwd  
and pwd.db might be
all that is required. Someone on the list might be able to clarify.

I basically followed the same procedure for adding users as well.

One thing to remember to move is the group file.

Thanks,

Lee
