Title:
  Full Disc Encryption and Root Password Don't Work

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When being prompted for password after installing with full disc
  encryption, password is invalid. Root and user passwords are invalid
  as well. Replicatable: I installed twice. Once with full disc
  encryption, and once without. The first time I couldn't boot up
  (password invalid error), second time I couldn't log in (same thing).
  "su" on guest account (which I am using now) also results in invalid
  password.

  I tried multiple times, and I am sure I wasn't typing my password
  wrong.

  Also, when I installed the second time, I wasn't asked for a password
  to unencrypt the discs, and the installation went successfully.
  (security issue?)
