Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: oem-config

I installed gutsy 20071016.1 i386 d-i in oem mode in English (with auto-
resize of another gutsy test install):

During the oem boot I:
 * Fiddled a bit with the Software Sources to remove the CD entry
 * Installed libadns1-bin using Synaptic
 * Created a user called "guest" using System / Administration / Users and 
Groups, in the most obvious way

Then I double-clicked on "prepare for shipping to end-user" which
appeared to work, and rebooted.

When I rebooted the usual "enter your details" dialogue appeared as
expected.  I provided my language (Dutch), keyboard (British English)
and timezone (Language) and was asked for my name and username and
password.

When I confirmed my entering the password for the second time, the X
server died immediately (black screen) and I was presented with a gdm
prompt.  The user and password I had provided during user firstboot did
not work (I didn't try the guest user).  I rebooted into the other
install for forensics and found that the main admin user did not exist.

I presume that this problem was caused by the fact that I created a user
during the OEM preparation.  I think this ought to be supported.
