Currently the only way is to do the initial install without an internet connection. So don't plug in the ethernet, and don't put in the wifi password until after the first full boot.

edit: This may only apply to Win10Pro

Correct, you have to either use a modified installer or some safe mode cmd line juke iirc

At least on Pro edition, just enter fake address like [email protected] and you will be provided with an option to create local account

I guess this is a Windows 10 pro thing because with this version you can at least tell it that you want to join a domain later. That way it will let you create a local account without joining a domain anyway.
