Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot 2.select install 3.enter purple password Actual Results: The system became non responsive to everything but ctrl-alt-f2 and ctrl-alt-f3; furthermore, logins from there took 25 seconds after the password for root was entered. Expected Results: Backspace key in field having purple password should act nominally. The following may be helpful, it may not be helpful.

What do you mean with "purple password" ?
I am referring to the feature documented at <http://blogs.fedoraproject.org/wp/mclasen/page/2/>, save the color purple occurs in the case of a strong password rather than the documented green. This is idle speculation (a SWAG), but I may not have waited long enough for the hang to clear. e.g., last evening, I started the installation again from scratch after installing 4 other distros without a problem. This time, I did not encounter a problem when backspacing on a 13 character password, but the system hung awaiting a start of NTP on the next screen (just as it had done before). It was late, so I left it waiting (after observing it for several minutes) and when I checked this AM, 6 hours later, the NTP had proceeded. This probably should be a separate bug report because of the difference in the symptoms, but I suspect the code which is causing the "apparent hangs" is the same in both cases.
