Update: I have discovered that this bug affects all password entries (drive encryption and user password), but it only comes into effect if the first 7 characters are all numerical. I was able to avoid this bug by having non-numerical characters within the first 7 characters. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2413086 *** |
When attempting to enter a password for drive encryption, as soon as seven characters are entered, it changes the status from "password must be at least 6 characters" to "weak password" and immediately exits the installer with the following error.
