    root password

    this may sound silly, but I've forgotten how to set a root password. I'm using the Knoppix 4.0.2 Live DVD and I want to do some small things, and I'm drawing a blank. Thanks

    "You can set it by going Knoppix Menu->Root Shell and typing "passwd", then enterting a root password"

    thanks

    I was looking at the CD version of Knoppix. The DVD has a much simpiler way. Forgot about it.
