Re: severe issue after installing debian to usb flash drive

The minimum password word seems to be 8 characters.

What you can do is install your password during install, then use it to boot into the installed system.

Log into root account.

The use the command "passwd" and enter your short password, the console will reply the password is too short, but if you want to really use it, enter it again. Then enter it again to confirm it. You have changed your password to the short password.

Same for your user account. Use the root account to do this.

As root:

passwd myusername pw

Where pw is your password. And myusername is your user name.

You will get similar messages as above but enter the short password again and it will be accepted,

David

Dear specialists,
I have installed Debian by using Debian Netinst image from latest stable
Debian system.
I have installed The system to USB 3.0 compatible 32 GB USB flashdrive.
Well, its speed is not so good like The speed of Patriot flash drives,
but I have thought that it would be enough to run installed Debian 64
Bit system.
But may be, that issue have been caused by The fact, that I have skipped
root account creation, because build in algorithms are enforcing users
to type complex passwords. So I have pressed Enter twice and process of
root account creation have been skipped.
INstaller have continued. Do you think, that in this case, installer
produces unusable Debian installation, if user skips root account creation?
I do not know, how to correctly read errors. I have taken snapshots of
my laptop display by using Android device and Eyed-PRO build in OCR
feature. But I would never read The whole screen.
How could i read logs which are accessed by using dmesg command from
other live working Linux distribution to get information, what was wrong?
Or is it really caused by The fact, that I have skipped root account
creation?
If so, please tell Me The minimum password lenght and its other
conditions so I will be able to reinstall Debian 10 with correct and
accessible root password for Debian netinstaller.
I think, that error is caused by something which boot very soon after
initrd and other Kernel parts have been loaded in to The memory.
Thank you very much for yours answers.
I have used UEFI compatible system, I have disabled secure boot inside
EFI firmware setup tool and I have virtualisation AMD support enabled.
When I use live system, there is no issue related to hardware
autodetection or other kernel faults.
