[Buildroot] question on setting file ownership after boot

[Robert Smigielski]

ownership problem. I noticed that the network manager build configuration
includes the option --with-dbus-user=dbus so I changed it from dbus to root
and did a clean then make. Runtime testing shows all files owned by root
not user "1000" now. All is well.
