FreeBSD 10 on Vbox - pam_chauthtok error

Hello,

I'd like to install FreeBSD-10-i386 on a VM with VirtualBox. However the installer gives me the following error:
Code:
Please select a password for the system management account (root):
Changing local password for root
New Password:
Retype New Password:
pam_chauthtok(): error in service module

The installer then immediately falls back to the blue screen UI and asks whether I'd like to try again. During the installation process, I chose to use the whole disk, US keymap, hostname is freebsd.test1.
Apparently, this is a documented error of pam_chauthtok, but I'm not sure how to fix it. Any idea? Thanks.
 
Hi,

I am having the same issue with FreeBSD 10 in Virtualbox 4.3.6. I've tried on a Mac OS X 10.9.1 host and on a GNU/Linux host.

Regards
