Public bug reported:
I found a bug while working on a custom install cd for 9.04 via a
preseed file.
Source: Alternate CD
Type: 32 bit
Version: 9.04
I wrote my custom preseed file but the installer isn't able to create the user
i want to during install:
My user section in preseed.cfg looks like:
d-i passwd/root-login boolean false
d-i passwd/shadow boolean true
d-i passwd/make-user boolean true
d-i passwd/user-fullname string Test User
d-i passwd/username string test
d-i passwd/user-password password test
d-i passwd/user-password-again password test
d-i passwd/user-uid string 1000
d-i user-setup/encrypt-home boolean false
Afterwards i checked /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat

BTW. i don't see anything coming from passwd/user-password or passwd
/user-password-again
