Retropie install guide Xu4
-
Hello.
Trying to install Retropie on a Odroid Xu4. I follow the guide on https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Odroid-XU3-XU4
Maybe this is stupid question, but in one step in the guide I remove the password for the new created user "passwd -d user", when I created the user in the beginning of the guide with "adduser user" then I have to give the user a password.
When I follow the guide it says further down that I must reboot then login with the new created user, but I cant do that because the password will not work (I deleted the password, I think?) the password I choose when adding user doesnt work, empty password doesnt work either. I have to login in as root again and "passwd user", but its not written in the guide to do so. But maybe its ment that I should understand that? :) -
@fomt Try skipping this step, I'm not sure it's still necessary, given the auto-login settings should work.

Ok thanks, should I skip adding this line to /etc/sudoers "user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL" also?
And then I only add the user to sudo group with "usermod -a -G sudo user" -
@fomt No, keep the other steps, just don't run the
passwd -d <yourusername>step.
