Hmmm, the templates says that using an empty password is not allowed and *then* that choosing one will switch to sudo mode. That can be confusing. Also, the templates gives the feeling that the user account will be created *only* when choosing an empty password, which is of course not true..:-) I'd suggest: "If the password is left empty, the unprivileged account that is created in next steps will be granted with the power to become root using the "sudo" command." PS: we should by the way make sure that something yells out if: - sudo mode is chosen - the unprivileged account creation is refused
