Bug Description

in the recovery mode it is possible to change your password. this is done by:(as root) passwd username Then followed by: UNIX pass. is this UNIX confusing for some users?
i heard some complaints about that UNIX-word in the recovery mode. can this be replaced by sudo pass or linux pass?
