[Feature Request] Install clarity - machine/user information
Posted: Mon Dec 06, 2021 5:25 pm
Don't get me wrong, graphical install is top notch.
However,... there's just something missing (or details are unclear) during the install.
User goes through setting up new root password. And then goes straight into new user setup. What would be "nice" is an explicit page for setting up the machine name/domain information. This is analogous to the text-based install under FreeBSD.
This would then pan into whether to use DHCP/static IP (a feature I saw someone else request elsewhere here).
Once root and machine information is addressed, input user details with the added checkbox of "invite user to wheel group" so as to explicitly indicate to the person installing what is being done. It was a surprise for me to see that created user account was already apart of wheel group after install.
