Description Marcus Meissner 2008-03-14 15:55:54 UTC

When interesting a password longer than 8 characters in the Install proposal,
I get a messagebox with "password too long, truncvating to 8 characters".

However Blowfish is enabled as method, so it should just work fine.

I've got the same error message in Beta 1 when I selected MD5 encrytption method.
BTW. In help text, there are probably wrong numbers about each encrytion (help says about 5-72 characters).

Comment 8 Marcus Meissner 2008-04-18 12:34:45 UTC

i also got it, by juzst specifying a root password seperately.

If I set a 10 digits user password and check "use as root password" everything works fine, but specifying the same password in the root password dialog causes the error (Beta1).
