Once you’ve installed Elementary OS, you’re whisked through a setup wizard. It repeats the questions about language and keyboard layout, then asks you to set up your user account. Enter your name, and a suggested username is given, which can be changed as you see fit. You also need to provide a password to protect your account – Elementary OS guides you towards one it deems suitably strong. The Device Name – your virtual machine’s name as it would appear on your home network – can also be changed at this point. Once done, click Finish Setup.
