Review of Resolute Raccoon Kubuntu 26.04 LTS

[barfly]

I posted this morning about the password requirements. This was in a VM, I have just tried on a bare metal and because I run an esoteric HDMI setup I always use nomodeset when installing as I cannot read the tiny fonts in normal mode. This time I was able to input a simple one digit password when entering a user. Just my observations, so if you can't install due to the extremely restrictive password requirements, just install in safe graphics mode.

kubuntu (and i thing all of ubuntu) has required at least 2 digits for a password for years now, afaik

i think you can also just leave it blank, but do not recommend that

No, it needs at least 8 digits and with very specific exclusions on a normal install
