Excellent, I've opened https://github.com/canonical/subiquity/pull/2333
to make autoinstall more consistent with interactive installation
methods.

Title:
  Attempting to create a user named root fails on 24.04.4

Status in subiquity package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  We used ansible to deploy Ubuntu 24.04.4 Desktop&Server automatically.
  During installation, we encountered the dialog, please refer to
  attached deploy_vm.png. And the log files under /var/log/installer are
  attached. Could you please help check it? Before this version, it
  always worked well. BTW, configs for this vm are as below: NVME disk,
  VMXNET3 network and EFI firmware. In fact, auto installation failed
  for all configs.

  Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

  Winnie Yue
