If the database is populated with the initial values, you should be able to log in with user 'Admin', password 'admin', see /usr/share/doc/phpbb3/README.Debian.
What are the issues with setting up the database automatically? I only had to change the configuration in /etc/phpbb to connect to localhost (so that passwords can be used instead of ident auth). At least some time ago on Debian the program worked fine after this.
