[meta-freescale] add user in image recipe

[Matthias.Heise at atlas-elektronik.com]

I just tried to add a user in the same way the root password is changed : with a ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND like this :

ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND += "add_a_user;"

add_a_user(){
	useradd -p '\$6\$53uYm/0Fnll\$Nc0RbHSvqRrd63Tw98TO3V1n25ORK9oR4QHqRIriXzLy0il/7.LIacX7mz7RJ1tdPIWiCJLNyQa7dKBNURqEg1' fstuser;
}

When baking I get this (the last bit of the log.do_rootfs):

NOTE: Executing set_root_password ...
DEBUG: Executing shell function set_root_password
DEBUG: Shell function set_root_password finished
NOTE: Executing add_a_user ...
DEBUG: Executing shell function add_a_user
useradd: /etc/passwd.15710: Permission denied
useradd: cannot lock /etc/passwd; try again later.
WARNING: exit code 1 from a shell command.

Maybe the initial method with the EXTRA_USER_PARAMS failed because of the same reason (but didn't break baking) ?
Any ideas to that ?
Thank you

Tried that, no difference
