Description Léane GRASSER 2025-08-06 12:42:44 UTC 
When "Use local account" is unchecked in anaconda-webui, on COSMIC, you cannot get past the login screen unless you manually create a user account (for example, using systemd.debug-shell=1).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot Fedora-COSMIC-Live-Rawhide-20250805.n.0.x86_64.iso
2. Double-click "Install to Hard Drive" to open Anaconda
3. Reach the account creation step, and uncheck "Use local account"
4. Install Fedora and reboot
Actual Results:
I reached the COSMIC login screen, and couldn't go any further.

Expected Results:
I expected a first-boot experience after rebooting--Anaconda didn't tell me that I would have to go and manually create a user account as root.

Additional Information:
It's one of the first times I fill a bug report, please let me know if you need any additional information :)
