I have zsync'd a Ubuntu Desktop ISO.. and attempted the same type of install there

- Ubuntu Desktop noble ISO

- booted ISO, (20240320.1 according to /var/log/installer/media-info)
- installer offered upgrade; so I accepted that.. closed & restarted install

- selected the same partition (partition layout created by full disk install of xubuntu noble week+ ago) for / WITHOUT FORMAT, clicked extra options where offered
- used 'guiverc' as username, and 'please' as password..

install completed & asked me to reboot... all good as with Xubuntu.

ON booting the new install... it appeared to go into OEM mode.

I was ASKED for a Username, am being asked to enter PASSWORD ....

THESE ARE DETAILS I GAVE THE INSTALLER.

** my opinion of what I'm seeing

I"m not familiar with OEM installs sorry; haven't QA-installed it in years, but this is acting like a Xubuntu type of install issue where the Ubuntu Desktop boot has just triggered an OEM type of setup thus the repeat of question...

Either way why have the installer ask me these questions if they're ignored on initial boot (if this is intentional behavior; which I very much doubt!!)

---
Either way I passed this install; install appears perfect & allowed me to login unlike Xubuntu... I just had to enter my username/password twice (once for ubuntu-desktop-installer, then again on first boot with blue-background on oem-type setup tool)
