I installed TC-3 in a VirtualBox VM (latest vbox release, 64-bit) t'other

know if it's a general problem (haven't seen other mentions of it)
or not, but it's weird enough I thought to mention it here.
When creating a user in Anaconda, I entered the password twice, as prompted,
and it said they didn't match. so I did it again. and again. and again. It
insisted they didn't match.
tried the same thing for the root password and got the same result.
So, I entered a one-character password, in both fields, and it did not
say they didn't match. so I tried two chars. ok so far. by working my way
up to the full password, one char at a time in both fields, it allowed me
to get the whole thing in successfully. This worked for both my username
and for root.
Never seen any such thing before!
I have seen a similar issue when installing in a VM viewed over VNC.
Occasional characters would get dropped. I ended up just carefully
typing the passwords in one character at a time, making sure that there
was another dot each time.
