These use cases do more than just creating a user account, the user
can also choose to set a root password, set the system timezone, set
the system language, configure the network and hostname. I have pasted
below the first screen you get on initial setup on the Minimal Arm
image
1) [ ] Language settings 2) [x] Time settings
(Language is not set.) (America/New_York timezone)
3) [x] Network configuration 4) [!] Root password
(Connected: enp1s0) (Root account is disabled)
5) [!] User creation
(No user will be created)
