create additional users for nanobsd

[matcorp]

I need to create two additional users with default passwords during the nanobsd build phase. I cannot find any guidelines for doing this.

It looks like nanobsd(8) and the HowTo at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/nanobsd/howto.html (2.3.4, 2.3.4) hint at using a configuration file with

CONF_BUILD    Options passed to the buildworld stage of the build.

for that. I also see mentions of customize_cmd, which looks like a way to insert commands at specific places/stages. See if that helps.

I still don't know where to go with this since the root and home directories are read only. I can't find any guidance as to "what" needs to be pre-loaded into each area, such as the home and etc directories, password files and so on.

What type of users are you trying to generate?

Why can they not be generated after the image has been built.
Mount the image, chroot, add the user, exit and unmount.

What you would ideally need is a script/program that can write a line of /etc/passwd to stdout which you could then pipe to $NANO_BASE/etc/passwd
