Fraser_Bell, not sure if you are referring to something mentioned in this post. I don’t see anything about the “create users” screen here.

If your comment is about the installer in general, take into account the installer must run in text mode (ncurses) with 80 columns and 25 lines. So what looks like “lots of rooms” in some situations (graphical mode with a good resolution) may not be that much in other scenarios. Plenty of people installs with lower resolutions or using the text mode through, for example, a serial console.

Hmmm. Lots of room still on that “Create Users” page. Why not include a short explanation why, though default, it is not the best idea to use the same password for user and root (also use the word administrator — ie root (the Administrator) — for the Windows to Linux newbies) and using automatic login are not really the best idea?
