Hi,

for the password generated by the installer, we recommend that you use 
copy and paste to enter it in your browser. I agree with you, if you did 
manually enter the password, it is quite long.

The installer failed because of the "Temporary failure in name 
resolution" error message generated by wget. I suspect that you didn't 
have an active Internet connection, which is expected by the installer.

On Ubuntu/Kubuntu, commands must be prefixed by 'sudo'. For example, the 
command:

---
dldrconfig --webconfd-pass
---

should be entered as:

---
sudo dldrconfig --webconfd-pass
---

on Ubuntu/Kubuntu. You should read the Ubuntu/Kubuntu documentation for 
more details on this matter.

Regards,
