Without --password-store=basic, Chromium tries to reach the GNOME or KDE keyring on first launch and pops a "Use your keyring to store passwords?" dialog — which the kiosk has no keyboard to dismiss with. Forcing the basic file-backed store skips the keyring lookup entirely. Cookies and any saved credentials end up in ~/.chromium/<profile>/Login\ Data, plain on disk, which is fine for a single-tenant arcade appliance.
