Based on bug #18206 sysupgrade can lead to loss of password information in certain situations. Most likely all users who will upgrade from versions r43017-43040, will lose their current passwords. :-( https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/18206 Currently /etc/shadow is defined as a conffile in base-files: https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/package/base-files/Makefile#L37 But it is not defined in the default list of essential files to keep in sysupgrade: https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/package/base-files/files/lib/upgrade/keep.d/base-files-essential If exporting conffiles info fails, /etc/shadow can get lost. Shadow passwords are now the default, so saying that preserving /etc/passwd is essential while /etc/shadow is not, makes no sense. The attached patch adds /etc/shadow to the list of essential files.

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution. Please use "make menuconfig" to configure your appreciated configuration for the toolchain and firmware. You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into package/feeds/. Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image. Simply running "make" will build your firmware. It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, the kernel and all choosen applications. You can use "scripts/flashing/flash.sh" for remotely updating your embedded system via tftp. The OpenWrt system is documented in docs/. You will need a LaTeX distribution and the tex4ht package to build the documentation. Type "make -C docs/" to build it. To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system. Sunshine! Your OpenWrt Project http://openwrt.org
