So, a better solution would be to set a dummy password, e.g.,
xxxxxxxx, let it take the screenshot with the bullets in the fields,
then replace it with the encrypted password from the kickstart file?
Let me take a stab at that.
This patch does the above. What do you think about this approach? It
fixed the problem in my limited testing.
Yesterday's patch was for RHEL 5.3 Beta. Attached is a patch for git
master (anaconda-11.4.1.57-1-1-gc6cf36a). It's almost the same except
that it skips the weak password (cracklib) check if the kickstart file
contains a crypted password (since the password it would be checking --
"xxxxxxxx" -- is not the real password, and it is very weak!).
I have not tested this patch, but I did test the RHEL 5.3 Beta patch.
