The default username and password are fixed

Open idlesilver opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

The username and password cannot been modified with "raspberry-pi-imager" It is fixed to be: username = biqu password = biqu

It would be nice to highlight the limitation explicitly!

This is not a limitation, it's a CB1 not a raspberry pi. Raspberry Pi imager is designed for raspberry pi. You use the normal Linux command sudo passwd after logging in if you want to change the password.

And this is to change the user id sudo usermod -l login-name old-name

If I change the name of Biqu like that, Mainsail stops working, it won't connect to Moonraker. Maybe it's because I had to run it like this multiple times quickly to get it to work, since biqu always has processes running:

sudo killall -u biqu && sudo usermod -l newname biqu

But a reboot doesn't fix it, not to mention trying to update the name of the user's home directory completely crashes everything. Is there no way to just configure the username or password before using the cb1 image?

This is actually a problem. Even when you SSH into the CB1 and use the sudo passwd command and change the password it doesn't change. It says it does but on reboot it's still the default biqu.

To change the password of the biqu user, don't use sudo.

biqu@xolotl:~$ passwd
Changing password for biqu.
Current password:
New password:'
Retype new password:
passwd: password updated successfully

Worked for me on reboot.
