pmpatrick Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Open a console and run: $ su <enter root password> # passwd You will be prompted to enter a password and to confirm it. Type in whatever you want for your new root password. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
