Description

What happened?

When I flash a RBPI Zero with the latest headerless 32bit Rasbian using Imager and set a username and password. Then I can SSH using a key but I'm asked for a password for my user after establishing the SSH session.

I've used simple passwords with only letters or only numbers. They all get hashed incorretly and I can't login.
I've tried different versions of imager and different OS versions. But it always ends up the same. So anoying
