Title:
  After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work (This happened to me at first in the 24-10-2021 build also, but when I reinstalled over the same VB disk, it worked). I triple-checked the password at install to ensure I wasn't having a senior moment!
  I tried just pressing Enter (i.e. no password) and this also didn't work.
  So to get here to report this, I had to boot into recovery mode and go to the root command and enter 'sudo passwd <user>'. When I did this, the prompt just asked me for the new password (not the existing password first as I was expecting) as if there was no password set.
