Thank you very much for the reply, John!
The cursor is in the new user 2nd password field when I hit ESC-2.
This apparently *also* causes the installer to crash.
The "magic" I just discovered with your help. Is that if the cursor
is in *any* cursor field. The installer will crash. So I simply
moved it into the Full Name field after creating the new user. Then
ESC-2.
The install is now proceeding as I write this reply.

Thanks again, John!
