I was surprised that the password at the installation is only set once.
As the letters of the new password are (correctly) hidden a typo of
users like me might be possible. ;)

Possible Solution: Confirm the new password in a second input field
(like at the Ubuntu installation).

See the attached screenshot displaying the current password promt.
