On Maemo:
Code:
# cat /etc/passwd
user:!:29999:29999::/home/user:/bin/sh
On Debian:
Code:
# cat /etc/passwd
user:x:29999:29999::/home/user:/bin/sh
The important thing is the 29999.. the user account permissions will work same without copying the maemo passwd file over the debian passwd file. Most other maemo users appear to have the same UID/GID as well.. It also appears the Maemo passwd file has not been shadowed <booooooooooo!>. That shouldn't make a difference one way or the other.. the UID/GID are the important ones and all the ones I'm seeing where they are the same, are the same.

Well.. except messagebus and haldaemon...
