Hello,
I am currently volunteering for a charity which refurbishes computers for sale as well as recycling unusable parts. As part of the service, we tend to install Linux on machines we sell, and we've found that Linux Lite is an excellent choice, both due to it's ease of use and it's attractive yet lightweight desktop environment, suitable for older hardware.
So far, we've been installing systems with a default username and password, and providing customers with instructions on how to change the details themselves when they get the computer home. Ideally what I’d like to implement is a system where, upon the first start up post install, the computer will ask them for their desired username and password, bypassing the need for them to change it themselves.
I know that some distros offer an OEM install solution which sounds like what I’m after. Does Linux Lite offer, or plan to offer, anything similar?
Congrats again on an excellent distro for beginners, and on your slick modifications to XFCE.
