Yesterday I installed Debian 11.1.0, 3 times. I installed with

root password to set. I know what the passwords that I used were. I even
opened the visual view of my passwords so I wouldn't make a mistake, but
after setting up and finishing install they did not work. As last resort
on the third try I tried 'sudo passwd root' and that flew. It's a problem
but at least the solution is simple right now. You don't want your root
password floating in a setup stream anyway Thsnk you.
Csn you recommend a manual for setting up auxiliary accounts on the same
machine ? Thank you again.
