Public bug reported:

I have tried (many times) to install ubuntu 6.06.  It installs but will
not run, when the correct user and password is entered in the GUI screen
it flicks to the command line (too fast to read) and then back to a
blank input user screen.

>From other comments here it seems this is normal.
Even microsoft doesn't have passwords during installation.

The solution is simple:
1.0  Allow the installation of ubuntu without a password, when it's up and 
working those that want passwords can presumably add them later.  The idea of 
having a password during installation is ridiculous -you can't access anything 
without the password so can't fix it.
2.0 Find out who wanted to put a password in the installation process and get 
rid of him/her/them, they are obviously planted by the opposition to stop 
people using linux.
