You used the F-20 remix

So that bit appears to have worked just fine.

We don't currently support displays as there is no upstream support
for HDMI. If you used a disk image other than the minimal one the
initial-setup comes up on the graphical display. You need to use the
minimal image and then the initial-setup will come up on the serial
console and you can create users, set TZ etc.
