Does the root user on the CentOS 5 live CD have
a password? If so, which?

See this:

Thanks for the link - I had only searched this list for the answer,
not the announce list :-(

For someone else making this mistake the answer is 12qwaszx
the first two characters in each row on the keyboard (unless
you have a German keyboard).

But the real question is, why is there a root passwd in the first place?

I spent 2 hrs with google yesterday trying to find the answer to this
question myself and the only way I found it was to ask on IRC (Thank you gh0st).
Obviously, I too did not know the correct question to ask google. :-)

Could it be posted somewhere more prominent?

Just curious.

Regards,
