Ok - I just did this one more time. 1-wrote image to nvme 2-booted 3-no wizard so I enabled wifi and sudo apt-get installed piwiz 4-rebooted 5-wizard shows up. 6-ran through the wizard and it re-login as my new user (so the piwiz worked as expected as bootup) 7-piwiz also ran updates. Lost linuxcnc boot screen (defaulted to 'welcome to raspberry pi desktop' image.
