Comments/Problems:

Dear Debian Developers,

first allow me to express how delighted I am with Lenny! I installed it
on diffent recent machines now and it's the first Debian, where allmost
everything works out-of-the box with only little configuration required.
You have done a brilliant job so far!

Nevertheless there seems to be a bug in the installer I would like to
report here.
I made a common install with the installer and installation finishes
without problems. At the beginning of the installation I chose "German,
Germany and German" as language, contry and keybord layout and the
locale is set to de_DE.UTF-8. In the installer dialogue "set up users
and passwords" I enter a root password the contains special characters
(umlauts, e.g. öäü). This seems to be the problem.
After the reboot it is not possible to change to a root console using
"su", because the password is rejected.

When I do an installation without a root password the contains special
charachters, in this case it is only "test" for example, I can su to a
root console after installation. So when using the special charachters
for the root password during installation the password gets saved (in
/etc/shadow?) diffently than it is encrypted after installation and
checked vs. the saved password.

As it is possible to change the root password after installation using
"passwd" so that it contains special characters, this seems to be a bug
of the installer, not of the package passwd.

Please take a look at that.

Thank you very much.

Regards,
Ralph

Was this with the text-based installer or the graphical installer?

I cannot reproduce this after an installation in German using a daily 
built image (with the text-based installer). As there have been various 
changes since D-I Beta2 was released that could have improved things 
here, I'm going to assume that the problem was fixed and close the 
report.

If you are willing to do so, please try if you can still reproduce the 
problem yourself using a daily built image [1].
Note that even though the report is now closed, you can still reply and we 
can reopen the report if needed.

Cheers,
FJP
