OK. I consider it likely that a typo was the reason for the wrong password on the first install. However, the second install had no normal user account, as you can see in my /etc/shadow (which is attached again). It should not have been possible to install without user account. Now that I think about it, I believe when I got shown the user account creation page in the installer, I accidentally immediately pressed some key (maybe Enter) and it threw me back to the locale selection. I configured everything again, but I believe this was the reason no user account was created. I could now make the user account creation page crash again by entering a wrong password confirmation, but after going through the installer again, the resulting config contains a user and I can login. I do not know how I managed to break this. > > Note that you can check by doing an install in a VM using the attached > script. > Thank you. For now I’ll try on real hardware though. Regards, Florian
