Ok. I unfortunately could not reproduce the issue. Just to make sure we are doing the same thing: - I'm booting debian-wheezy-DI-b3-amd64-DVD-1.iso or debian-wheezy-DI-b3-amd64-netinst.iso with 1G memory with the graphical installer boot entry. - At the language question, I choose Malayalam. - At the warning about translation, I choose to continue - From there, I'm choosing all the default answers, until: - As root passwd, I type just b - As user name, I switch to Malayalam using alt-shift, then type on keys hdjbrCd] (naming keys through the qwerty layout), it seems to be printing the same as above. - As user login, I do the same then I'm getting the error message about login having to be just letters, without any hang. You didn't specify which image you were using exactly, could you tell us? Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
