Bug#385628: debian-installer: Should incite the user to use different password for root and for the initial user
Package: user-setup
Followup-For: Bug #385628
I'd rather not annoy users with such a prompt. On a single-user system,
especially one using sudo for root access, using the same password for
both a user and root seems perfectly fine. Only a multi-user system
where multiple people have root needs to worry about this.
