[opensuse-autoinstall] setting root password in autoyast

Hi,

how can I set a root password in autoyast installation (openSuSE 11.1).
I tried following syntax in autoyast.xml but the password for root is not set
after installation is done:

<users config:type="list">
<user>
<encrypted config:type="boolean">true</encrypted>
<user_password>encrypted password</user_password>
<username>root</username>
</user>
</users>

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
While doing an installation manually it is possible to set a root password,
so I think it's also possible in autoyast installation via xml control.

Thanks in advance
Werner Hack
