Yes, you can, and should, add your new user via terminal o= r tty.=C2=A0
# useradd -m <USERNAME>=C2= =A0
# passwd <USERNAME>
=C2=A0Is the simplest form.

Check out= =C2=A0https://github.com/voidlinux/documentation/wiki/Quickstart and https:= //github.com/voidlinux/documentation/wiki/configuration for more informatio= n.

I have other doubts about setting the system, = especially some related to multi-language input in Void Linux (with ibus), = but I shall wait to clarify such topics after have solved basic settings of= the system.
I look forward to have a sooner reply from you, folks!
