[OE-core] [PATCH 0/2] fix can't login when debug-tweaks is not in IMAGE_FEATURES

[Robert Yang]

Hello,

According to the discussions, here are things that we may do,
please feel free to give your comments.
1) Add an image feature like "production", which will conflict with
    debug-tweaks, and check for some common security issues ?

2) Add a way like ROOT_PASSWD to let user can set root passwd easily ?

3) Do nothing, leave it as the current status.
