the tool will be started using systemd unit file which can be
disabled. It will have to be explicit (even minimal install needs
users or root password), but we can figure something out.
In my experience, root password is handled by the installer and firstboot
is not needed to configure users if puppet is being used to configure
them. (Also there are many Fedora systems out there having only root and
the system accounts -- i.e., no real users.) Having to disable the
firstbooot systemd unit file just to get to a root prompt so that puppet
can be installed would be a PITA. The whole idea of puppet is to avoid
having to such things because it can automate them.
