I believe we have two bugs here but the same solution may fix both. In #1619245 the user cannot be created because of a lack of network connectivity, in this case it is an incomplete profile in Ubuntu One (i.e. no public SSH key). Either way a fix would be to allow a local user to be created on first boot by console-conf but this local user should be limited to side-loaded snap and not have authority to install snaps from the store.

Jamie.
