System hang after printing "umount file systems... done", so I had to
reboot my HPV3183 by the power button. But I tried to input the
password but couldn't login anymore, and I bet I didn't take the wrong
password.

so I think perhaps the sysinst didn't save the password to file
really, or there was something wrong else.
