[MiNT] SpareMiNT Manual Install Procedure



Hi all,

I am trying to install SpareMiNT manually, not using EasyMiNT installer as a base, just relying on the documentation at wiki.sparemint.org.

In the parts of the Wiki pages that talk about the users and groups setup, as a possible starting point, KGMD and KEMD distributions are mentioned. However, a FreeMiNT only starting point is not considered (my case).

>There should be a minimum set of users and groups known on your system so that installation procedures can rely on it. If you have previously installed a MiNT distribution such as KGMD or KEMD your setup will probably very close to our needs.

What's the recommended way of going about setting up /etc/passwd in particular,  in my situation?

Thanks
