Package: user-setup Severity: normal Tags: d-i I installed jessie from the daily netinst image and did not enter a password for root. The end result was a working system without root access as sudo was not installed.
The installer should make sure that sudo is installed, when the root password is left empty. I was installing on a hard-drive with /etc and /home from a previous jessie install. The installer should also add the user created during root-passwordless installation to the group 'sudo', but since my previous install already had this, I do not know if this is made on fresh install. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
