[yocto] How to add user with nologin shell

[Bipnesh, Abhinav (Abhinav)]

Hi,

Still same error even if I used -U option.

I tried even groupadd but still I get below error.

So any thoughts to fix it.

Thanks,
Abhinav

The problem seems to be with the group.
According to my man page, the group must already exist.

Why don't you use the -U flag?
