You’re the only person to see this, are you sure? -bbrazil May 17, 2008, at 11:59 AM

I saw the same prompt for a password when I clicked on the install icon on the desktop.ygingras?

Confirmed. It always happened when I had an usb external hard disk attached.arc

I’ve had someone report this to me. They say they didnt have USB stick in and got the message too. kgoetz

I had the same problem (with “install” and all other softwares which require root password, on Live-CD). But I only had to keep it blank, and it works very well (it can just create confusion, and should be explicited) Musicien77

Yip, I see this. Now to figure out what’s going on… -bbrazil August 22, 2008, at 08:38 PM
