Severity: important
Package: installation-reports
Boot method: CD-image in VMware
Image version:
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso
'built on 20060409'
Download date: 20060420
Date: 20060424
Machine: VMware Workstation 5.5.1 under Debian/unstable
Test sequence:
- boot without parameters (=default)
- language: German
- keymap: German
- etc.
- at the prompt for the user account name type in a non-ASCII character
like 'ä' LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH DIARESIS into the edit field
Expected behaviour:
-------------------
1) it is not possible to enter invalid characters
OR
2) let the user correct the string after an error message
Actual behaviour:
-----------------
- The edit field displays the string '<E4>' instead of 'ä',
- the yellow background signalling the cursor position hangs on the '<'
of '<E4>',
- <BACKSPACE> or <DEL> is not working,
- after an error message and managing going back to the question,
the field again is initialized with the defect string
-> no chance for correction, reboot needed
Characters not working are: ß°§üÜöäÖĵ
All other invalid characters (outside [a-z][a-z0-9]+) of the German
keyboard do not damage the field editor.
In case of other strings, e.g. hostname, it is possible to go to the
main installer menu, retry, and a nice and sane edit field is displayed.
BTW: g-i has better handling in the same situation.
PS: maybe you want raise the severity higher.
