I have managed to "work around" this, but its been a bit cumbersome (but
fun). I have set up machine for building Angstrom using Bitbake /
Openembedded, following the instructions on the OE / Angstrom websites -
its quite straightforward.

In the "packages" directory under the build root, you need to go into
the "base-passwd" directory, and have a look around. You will find a
subdirectory called "slugos". 

In there is a root password patch file (I forget the exact name). You
basically just cp that file to the parent directory (overwriting the one
there which sets a blank password). 

In the slugos directory there is a README file which documents the
password "opeNSLUg" which the patch file inserts.

Anyway, once thats done just "bitbake base-image".
