Hello. This is my first question on this list so let me know if I
started a stupid question: is it possible to set up autoyast so that
during installation the installer ASK user for root password and ASK
USER optionally add a new user to system (and decide if he should
auto-login)?

I read the document and I know how to define default root password and
add a user in yast configuration. Here the expected result is user enter
their root password themselves. Is it possible?
