^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AFAICT root_password=12345 became debian-installer/netwerk-console/password=12345
debian-installer/network-console/password-again=12345
(yes, right now both are needed)
I could not find an equivalent of sshd=true
at least not in the file
debian-installer/packages/network-console/debian/network-console.postinst
As what I read from that file, it will allways ask twice for the password.
(even if it was set at boot time)
