Where can't you enter a root password?

Comment 2 bugzilla4me 2000-07-26 16:38:37 UTC

When installing the redhat, where I have to enter the password twice the first 
time.

Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2000-07-26 16:46:42 UTC

OK, assigning to installer.

Comment 4 bugzilla4me 2000-07-28 14:53:24 UTC

I don't understand the assigning to installer.
I am a beginner.

Hello,
Please let me know, what I need to do to in order, that I can fill my password.
This password I need to fill in twice when I am installing the Redhat for the 
first time.

The installer requires you to enter the root password you want your installed
system to use.

We have you enter it twice to make sure you typed it correctly the first time.
