I've encountered problems with installing FreeBSD-10.0-BETA1 i386 under
VirtualBox.
The problem is with setting/changing root password during install
process.
After entering password twice there is:
passwd: pam_chauthtok(): error in service module
Then there shows pwd_mkdb.core in current directory.
The same VirtualBox machine has no problems with installing
FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE
Has anyone any clues?

I have seen that error when the password database in /etc is not
writeable (in my case, / was mounted read-only).
I don't think that's the case as during install I went to another
console to check how is mounted future / and it's:
/dev/ada0p2 on /mnt (ufs, local, journaled soft-updates)
and /mnt/etc/pwd.db, group, passwd are 644 and
spwd.db,master.passwd are 600
The same as in running 9.2-RELEASE
Anyway, thanks for the hint.

I've managed to make another simple test: chroot from 9.2-RELEASE kernel
and I can change the password without a problem, chroot from 10.0-BETA1
kernel and error appears. No matter if I use 10.0-BETA1 kernel on
9.2-RELEASE userland or boot from CD image. For tests I turned off
journal, left only soft-updates.
