Depends on what you mean by "standard". From user-setup-udeb_1.88_all.udeb. Template: passwd/make-user Type: boolean Default: true Description: Create a normal user account now? It's a bad idea to use the root account for normal day-to-day activities, such as the reading of electronic mail, because even a small mistake can result in disaster. You should create a normal user account to use for those day-to-day tasks. The OP's requirements are very nurky. Whatever he wants can be done from the installer. -- Brian.
