Hi Izrun,
Welcome to InfiniteMac - Please enjoy your stay! 
Your issue is known as the Account Creation Loop error.
Quote:
How to: Install Error loop at account creation
Issue: Upon install, the process hangs in an infinite (?) loop circling between chosing language and creating / transferring an user acount ("Do you already own a mac?").
According to the forum, the problem seems to be connected to problems concerning the network card.
Solution 1: Importing an account from an existing (Tiger) installation.
Solution 2: Booting with the flag
Code:
"Graphics Mode"="640x480x32"
The resulting low screen-resolution prevents the setup screen, thus skipping the "loop". As one is not able to create a new username, only the default "admin" is created. This can be changed later on.
Solution 3: Some people reported success with disabling the network card in the bios or disconnecting the cable.
Solution 4: Boot using "-s" flag then type:
Code:
/sbin/mount -uw /
passwd root
touch /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
reboot
