You should really have a second account: root account has every right,
including thrashing the whole system, while regular accounts don't have
it, they just have the right to work in their own place, which is just
fine.

You may leave the password empty.

There is no standard I'm aware of for text mode, but you may build your
own: in /etc/inittab, there are lines like:
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1

You may replace this by
1:2345:respawn:/bin/su -c sh - yourlogin < /dev/tty1 > /dev/tty1 2>&1
