(No disks selected) 3) [!] Set root password 4) [!] Create user (Password is not set.) (No user will be created) Please make your choice from above ['q' to quit | 'c' to continue]: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And you type '5' and then realize your mistake and hit backspace, you get: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1) [!] Timezone settings 2) [!] Install Destination (Timezone is not set.)
