I've recently installed the Mate spin of 30, and that gave me the
chance to enter passwords for root and set up at least one user account
(I don't recall whether there was an opportunity to create several),
while the installation was going on.
I suppose if you set it going, and then came back at the end, you could
have missed that step. But it popped up moments after I launched the
install.
