Subject: bug#35806: Login passwords incorrect on some newly installed 1.0.1 systems
Date: Mon, 20 May 2019 11:38:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190520093855.3ldl2mjhgi3fx6qz@pelzflorian.localdomain> (raw)
Login fails with
Login incorrect
on a system newly installed from the 1.0.1 ISO image — on only some
reinstalls. Maybe it was my fault, but maybe not, it is kind of
spooky. Can others reproduce?
The first time the password was correctly set to x in /etc/passwd and
in /etc/shadow the line looked normal. Maybe I made a typo when
setting up the password?
I tried to reproduce with a less sensitive password “y” for root and I
believe an empty user password or maybe “y” too; now I got no user
entry in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow but can log in as root.
This was the content of /etc/passwd:
root:x:0:0::/root:/gnu/store/qn1ax1fkj16x280m1rv7mcimfmn9l2pf-bash-4.4.23/bin/bash

Maybe I turned off my computer at the wrong time when booting into the
installed system? But the passwords get set up before the first boot,
don’t they? I reinstalled again since then. Now it works.

Florian
