I am creating liveCD with livecd-creator tool and using Livecd-fedora-9-base-desktop.ks as the kickstart file. I needed to a user so I added the following command to the add user section of the kickstart file

useradd -c "full name of user" username

I created the LiveCD and booted it. The user was listed on the login screen. However, I was not able to login using it. The following message was displayed "unable to authenticate user". Since I did not set a password I was expecting that it would login but it did not.

Additionally, I attempted to login using the default Fedora Live Login. It did not work but there was no message displayed. It

Any ideas on what is causing this problem?
