Probably. According to useradd sources, exit 1 (E_PW_UPDATE) also happen when
problems to lock /etc/passwd, which could theoretically on different
circumstance than read-only /, but I guess we can ignore it.

Or we could use statvfs to detect read-only / ("can't update password file" does
can be for different purposes), but I wouldn't bother and user return value 1.

Kind regards,
Petr
