Ok so IMHO it's pretty useless. I thought it was comparable to anaconda where you specify the rootpw and an optional user. I expect many call's if we don't explain they have to use the username root. But we're building a custom customer front end anyway so we'll just fill in the root user ourselves I guess. Let's say a customer creates a new vm, add's a Centos iso to boot from and wishes the add a rootpw and admin user account, is there any way to do this currently? >> >> >> Say I want to add an user account & set the root password.

I could have done that in the template as well. Also the templates will become single user as it doesn't make sense to share the same root with multiple users.
