Creating the initial user account
When we install Ubuntu Server, it will create an initial user account for us as part of 
the process. This user will be used for configuring and maintaining the server after 
installation. In this section of the installer, we'll be given an opportunity to name this 
user and create a password.
Fill out your information on this screen, as I have in the following screenshot. 
One important thing to keep in mind is that the user you create here will have 
administrative access. You can always create other users later on, but the user you 
create here will have special privileges. When finished, arrow down to 
Done
 and 
press 
Enter
