Christoph just noticed it's also asking _before_ installation - even more confusing, but I didn't even notice :)
Christoph: can you give me more details on this? Did this happen on login? Or did you do any specific action? For which partition did this happen? (you can know this by expanding the details in the polkit dialog) (In reply to comment #4)
it still prompts _after_ installation. This will be very confusing to users as they just gave a root password, but that won't work at that prompt.

What i noticed in M8, the root password is required by live installer - /sbin/yast2 live-installer on LiveCD. Reproducible on real harware and in VMware. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
