Public bug reported:
I am using the [autoinstall process](https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall) with nocloud provider. I want to manually enter the hostname, so have set the identity section to interactive. However, when I do this, the password section is blank instead of pre-seeded with the value provided. The other identity sections (hostname, username, realname) are preseeded as expected, when the interactive section comes up. Only the pw is missing. 1. Tell us your cloud provider: `ds=nocloud-net` 2. Any appropriate cloud-init configuration you can provide us: *user-data* ``` #cloud-config autoinstall: version: 1 interactive-sections: - identity identity: hostname: change-me password: $6$xnH... username: admin realname: Admin ``` ** Affects: cloud-init Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "cloud-init.tar.gz" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883180/+attachment/5383104/+files/cloud-init.tar.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
