Just click "next".

(Not an error: It just waits and enables users to make changes at that stage, one may not want to install grub etc.. )

Okay! phew!
What about Computer Network Names?
Computer name by default just says mx
Computer domain: example.com
SaMBa Server for MS Networking is also checked.
Please Advise.
Thank You!!!

You can leave them as they are if you like (if you won't seriously have a network)

If you like you can change the computer name to , say, ralph (or so) (you'll see that in terminal: say, as: yourusername@ralph )

In case you finish the installation successfully, don't forget to detach the usb stick before you reboot (it'll tell you at the end).

Cause sometimes users forget that and ask.. as it keeps booting the live usb stick rather than the installed system on disk :)

Thank YOU!
Do I Need a Root administrator Account/Root password?
I set up the Default User Account already.
Then there is Autologin and Save live desktop changes.
On second thought I'm going to leave the Default account without a PW then I won't need it every time I login

Set a pw. for root (that's something confused by many users) then (now or later) you can enable autologin .

(Having no pw. or just a space or autologin are different things. Shortly, best and recommended way is to have a normal pw. both for root and user and then if you like , enable autologin.)

Problem.
I checked and put a PW in Root administrator Account and hit Next and it greyed out and hasn't done anything. seems stuck! do I need to Abort and start again?
Might it be cause I didn't put a PW in the Default user PW boxes?

I entered a Default PW as you suggested and hit Next. I guess it takes up to 20 minutes to install Correct?

Yep. Roughly (depends on hardware).. most of it is "files are being copied..."

Anytime you like you can click "Back" (no need to abort/start again)
