New member here, and a long time Puppy user. Currently posting this from Fossapup64, 'cos I can't for the life of me work out what the root password should be when running in "guest"(?) mode. I know, I know; I'm a dozy git, but I cannae find it anywhere in the documentation!
Quick background:
I've essentially done a quick'n'dirty "USB-type" install to an old PATA/IDE 64 GB KingSpec SSD out of my ancient Dell Inspiron lappie, which shuffled off its mortal coil last August. Runs via a USB 3.0 to SATA adapter. Runs really rather well, if the truth be known.
The trouble is, we're SO used to running-as-root ALL the time in Puppyland that I have to give myself a darned good kick up the backside when I try out anything that uses the usual user password:root password structure.....
I was trying to install a browser using the scripts, and of course, it wants a root password.....and the quick'n'dirty method doesn't 'install' it in the normal way.....nor can I find any reference to this in the documentation anywhere. Anybody fancy pointing me in the right direction? All advice/suggestions, etc, gratefully received...!
(If you feel a re-install via a different method would be better, don't be afraid to say so.)
Mike.
