chroot can't execute passwd exec format error

[krsmith28p]

Interesting, is this a version of postmarketOS that came with the phone (so the pmOS CE) or is it one you either made yourself or downloaded from the internet somewhere? If the latter, which image did you download?

Another user with the same problem.Reports that it cannot create user : chroot can't execute useradd, exec format error.  I have asked for SSH and encryption, if that is relevant. 
And yes, with preinstalled version.
