Description justauser 2025-02-17 17:42:19 UTC
after install and launch we are prompted for a user name and password.  It would be useful to tell the user that the account will be created and also assigned to the wheel group.  When I finished I was wondering if I might need to do something to be able to do installs, etc.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for testing things and the feedback!

I've made some tweaks in https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/wsl-setup/pull-request/3#request_diff that will print out:

Your user has been created, is included in the wheel group, and can use sudo without a password.
To set a password for your user, run 'sudo passwd <your username>'

After you enter your username. Let me know if there's any other details I should include or if the phrasing is unclear!
