+
+Welcome to Pop!\_OS! Here's what to expect during initial setup! After the first power on of Pop!\_OS, a series of screens will guide through the setup process.
+
+1. Select your language:

+
+2. Select a locale.

+
+4. Select a keyboard layout.

+
+5. Choose the `Clean Install` option for a standard installation. This is the best option for new Linux users, but be aware that this will erase all contents of the target drive. Alternatively, you can select `Try Demo Mode` to continue testing Pop!\_OS in the live environment.
+
+    ![Try or Install](/images/install-pop/clean-install.png)
+
+    Select `Custom (Advanced)` to access GParted. This tool allows configuring advanced features like dual booting, creating a separate `/home` partition, or placing the `/tmp` partition on a different drive.
+
+6. Click `Erase and Install` to install Pop!\_OS to your selected disk.

+
+### User Account Setup
+
+The next section of the installer will guide you through creating a user account so you can log in to your new Pop!\_OS installation.
+
+Provide a full name (this can include any text you want, uppercase or lowercase), as well as a username (which must be lowercase):
+
+![Username setup](/images/install-pop/enter-username.png)
+Once the account has been created, you will be prompted to set a new password.

+
+### Full Disk Encryption
+
+Encrypting the system disk is not necessary, but it ensures user data is secure in the event that someone gains unauthorized physical access to the device.
+
+The drive can be encrypted using your login password by checking `Encryption password is the same as user account password`, or you can uncheck this box and select `Set Password` at the bottom. Select `Don't Encrypt` to skip the disk encryption process.
+
+![Encrypt option](/images/install-pop/encrypt-disk.png)
+
+If you chose the `Set Password` button, you will see an additional prompt to set your encryption password. This will be requested every time the system boots.
+
+Continue to the next step in the installer. Pop!\_OS will now begin installing to disk.
+
+![Progress](/images/install-pop/install-progress.png)
+
+When installation completes, reboot your computer and log in to complete the user account setup process.
