To answer my own question, this can be done by adding a preseed.cfg
file as described in B.4.5 here:
https://www.debian.org/releases/stabl
I have made a live image, with installer, and it seems to work as I
want, apart from one wrinkle.
I want the new user to be part of the sudoers group by default. and
for sudo to be available.
It seems that if you give a root password during the installation then
sudo is disabled.
