I know the edge kernel and trixie build is not supported, but it builds just fine, but during the first boot it fails when setting the root password. Any fix?

it fails

elaborate

I enter new root password once, and enter return. Then I type the new password again, but before I hit enter, the command promt jumps to loggin. Then I'm stuck.

spelling error

I guess the problem is that I'm using a simple 2 character password. It has been working fine until now. I'll try a long password next time. 

 

Update:

Nope, still fails with a longer password.

I had the same problem when trying this directly on my Banana PI M5. But when I connected from my notebook via ssh everything worked fine and I could create the root and user password. Afterwards login was also possible directly on the machine.
