Bug Description
First bug report for Ubuntu... sorry if it's not good enough.
I will try to describe what happens. When I got asked to enter full name (when
installing), I entered my name with ć instead of c (I'm using Croatian keyboard
layout). Installation has gone one page foward, asking me username. I picked
one, and after entering both passwords and cliking continue, it asked me the
name again. It could probably go that way in circles, so next time after
entering passwords I pressed "go back" instead of "continue" and then I got left
with just blue screen. Nothing happened.
Basically, here we have two things:
1. "Enter full name" repeating if čćšđž are used.
2. Installation fails to complete if "Go back" instead of "Continue" is used.
I'm not sure if these are two separate issues, since I haven't been able to test
them more, but I will if needed.
I forgot the most important thing: I'm using Hoary array-4 installation CD for
i386, on Athlon 64 socket 754 machine.
