Pavan,
Is this a regression from the previous beta releases?
Are you able to install using test mode of installation?
I could see some messages in yast logs:
---
|-- couldn't create VNC password file...
|-- VNC access has been disabled due to a password exception
|-- Please make sure the password is at least 8 characters long
---
Did you try with a password of eight or more characters?

Pavan,
Is this a regression from the previous beta releases? No.
Are you able to install using test mode of installation? I can bypass this stage using test mode, but unable to complete installation because of other errors.
I could see some messages in yast logs:
--- |-- couldn't create VNC password file... |-- VNC access has been disabled due to a password exception |-- Please make sure the password is at least 8 characters long ---
Did you try with a password of eight or more characters?
I have given eight character password.
Thanks
Pavan
