The default root password is live.
You don't need a password for the regular and auto-logged in user one.

it says that root passwd is live I used that while booting but it gave cute error codes
like I am out of here or Meh or similar teasing comments.
What went wrong? I boot using this code.
Should I change noautologin to something else to boot as root? I have booted without it and the autologin
works just fine. Everything works but when I try to boot as root then it gives me those cute comments.

Any friendly suggestion about from not being root. I don't mind being live guest or whatever it is named.
But now and then I want to be root because that is what I want to be.
Englsh is not my languages at all. We got taught it maybe two hours a week at primary school
so my English is from reading Byte and PCWorld and NewScientist and Psychology Today maybe

You're not allowed to enter a graphical environment using the root account. There is no reason for you to do that and you shouldn't do that. Period.

Ooops I did not know that. Maybe you could write that in that post that do mention the password for root?
so all the others also know? or give link to this thread that explains it?

Not allowing root GUI login has nothing to do with the root password. It's something that has to be avoided completely and that should be common knowledge.

Don't worry, once logged in your normal user account, you can still do all administrative tasks very easily as root.
No need to log as root for an entire session.
