I have this one system (that is now, alas, in productive use) where I could reproduce this two or three times before finding a "workaround". To actually force the issue, it seems, I had to set the password ASAP. Once the install screen shows up, press the button, set the password, BAM. If the screen shows up and I waited a while, it worked. But I've never had the time to narrow it time to how much time actually seems necessary. I tend to think anaconda is using cracklib from the installed system and if you're trying to set the password before that is installed it crashes. But that's a very wild guess :) On Wed, Nov 28, 2012 at 7:37 PM, Adam Williamson <awilliam@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Wed, 2012-11-28 at 12:26 -0600, Nonamedotc wrote: >> Hey!
