Hi,

I haven't got any news about this patch.
Has it been reviewed ?

I hope it was not lost in the flow of other patches.
If so, i can resend it.

Best regards,
Herve

I don't like this ifdeffery. If you want to have this configurable
please make a

static char *passwd_file = "/env/etc/passwd"

int set_passwd_file(const char *file)
{
	passwd_file = file;
}

And call it from your board code.

Sascha

In my case i have multiple envfs images loaded with loadenv.
and i need to have passwd file from one of these image.
I have /env which is my barebox env and /user which is loaded from envfs
image. I need passwd file in /user/passwd.

In a more general case, the abilily to have passwd file from a directory
other than /env can lead, in a very simple way, to the ability to have
passwd file from a fat filesystem or an ubifs filesystem

I use #define to set this passwd file because i want to set it at
compile time and not at runtime.

If you prefer runtime configuration, i can do the patch according to
sasha suggestion.

Of course, that's a good way to do !!!!
I had missed that symlinks are supported in envfs when i wrote the patch.

You can simply forgot my patch and i am sorry for this noise.
