_PROBLEM HISTORY_
I've been doing a series of Debian installs over the last
several months.
Purpose:    Evolve a install meeting a personal minimal and
Functional.
Constraint: NO network physically available. Install from
purchased set of DVDs.

I have a history of problems with the root password not
being recognized.

It would be useful, if you could try to reproduce that bug with
the current daily build for Wheezy:

thanks

Got an unexpected chance to go to local library yesterday (11/17), but only had time to download first CD from page you referenced. I think, from just rereading page, it's a weekly rather than daily build. Identifying info debian-wheezy-DI-b3-i386-CD-1.iso, size 678428672 bytes, MD5: 3ffcca4aaa228260ac8799134cf8533c.

I did the install twice.
When "shadow password" was *NOT* enabled the problem occurred as in my original report. When "shadow password" was enabled the problem did *NOT* occur.

I launched only from 1st line in GRUB menu - did not test in 'rescue mode'.
