5 Not sure what question you are asking here...do you just need to know
6 how to login as root when staring at the Gnome desktop of the liveCD?
7 If so, Ctrl+Alt+F1 will give you a root console shell, where you can
8 change the root password to something not random. Then you can switch
9 back to X if you like and do an "su - root" from a terminal window to
10 get root access there. Or you can just continue to work on the
11 console.
