I had the same issue, kinda confusing documentation makes it seems like both are a step.

<p>When setting up Craft CMS I get a 404 error page that says</p>

<pre><code>HTTP 404 - Not Found - yii\web\NotFoundHttpException
Template not found: dashboard
</code></pre>

<p>I am running MAMP (PHP 7.2.8 and MySql 5.7.23) on a Mac and followed the installation instructions (using Composer) found on <a href="https://docs.craftcms.com/v3/installation.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.craftcms.com/v3/installation.html</a>.</p>

<p>Everything seems to run smoothly until I hit the "Web Browser Setup" part (<a href="https://docs.craftcms.com/v3/installation.html#step-6-run-the-setup-wizard" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.craftcms.com/v3/installation.html#step-6-run-the-setup-wizard</a>), which is where I get the 404 page instead of the setup wizard.</p>

<p>Any clues to what could have gone wrong?</p>

<p>Thanx! </p>
