Same issue here when restaring a container with persistant data

[chodorenko]

its problem from there

docker-android/cli/src/device/emulator.py

Line 140 in 7064a9b

"sudo sed -i '1d' /etc/passwd")

In first start installs rights for /dev/kvm and remove root user from system.
after reboot container for /dev/kvm present old rights and no can use sudo by not exist root user.

@budtmo Can you explain why this was done? And perhaps it is worth removing the deletion of the root user in the container?
