get custom user set during the installation

[Piethein Strengholt <piethein@strengholt-online.nl>]

Hello all,

I'm trying to retrieve the custom user that was set during the installation
with a script (during the finish-install.d phase).

The code that I'm using is:

#!/bin/sh
USER=$(getent passwd 1000 | sed -e 's/\:.*//')
if [ "$USER" != "user" ] ; then
 in-target rm -rf /home/user/
 in-target sed -i "s/home\/user/home\/$USER/g" /etc/smb.conf
 in-target sed -i "s/USER=user/USER=$USER/g" /etc/default/sabnzbdplus
fi


This doesn't seem to work. The value returned is empty. Anyone of you know how to retrieve the custom user that was entered during the installation?

Regards,
