Yes, I can see root log in disabled by default. How to I enable root
login?
Root login is disabled because the account doesn't have a password. You
can give it one during install, but it isn't required, so most people
never realize that they can do that. As I prefer su to sudo, I always
do. To correct that without reinstalling, run this:
sudo passwd
which will you to change (or in this case set) the root password. Once
that's done you, and anybody else who knows it can become root.
