I’m reinstalling Tumbleweed today after having some unusual hardware issues. I’m using today’s image which is the 2024/02/26 one.
After going through guided partitioning and wiping all the partitions on my SSD, choosing my locale and creating my user, the installer is asking me to define a root password. Is this new?
@lavadrop when you created your user, where the boxes checked for admin (aka sudo) access? I don’t use that option as always set a root password.
Yes, the box was checked
@lavadrop then it could be an installer bug…
Yes it was, for other reasons I reinstalled again and now the installer didn’t ask me to define the root password while the option was checked.
For most of my installs, I am asked to set a root password.
That’s because I usually import users from the previous system.
