Then when you need it just type it in.
A lot of CD releases you have to "sudo" to do root stuff. e.g. "sudo
fdisk -l"
Yes, I know all that; I must just have been too lazy to type it;
but I was trying to ask what the password *is* -- none of my guesses
([none], root, toor, fedora, arodef) worked. And if it was in the readme,
I missed it.
I have no idea what the password is, but I think you are missing what
people are telling you, what you want to do is "sudo su -" to actually
become root, and if you really need to set the root password you can.
