+Example
++++++++
+
+The root password can be automatically set when the instance is created. In
+order to do this, the ``examples/defaultpasswords`` file has to be copied to
+``$sysconfdir/ganeti/instance-debootstrap/hooks/``, and its data file
+``examples/confdata/defaultpasswords`` has to be copied to
+``$sysconfdir/ganeti/instance-debootstrap/hooks/confdata/`` and modified
+accordingly to one's own need. The file syntax is such that each line represent
+a user, with the format::
+
+  username:password
+
+After copying the two files, just running the instance creation as usual will
+automatically cause their execution.
