<p>
<br>
Hello all,<br>
I added/removed some packages & created a fedora customized livecd using by the livecd-fedora-9-desktop.ks and livecd-fedora-9-base.ks files.<br>
When I am trying to access the system settings or any superuser's applications, its asking root password. I did not set any root password in the .ks file and I tried "root","", "fedora" & "toor" also. But no use. Somebody already posted the same query in this mailing list. But I did not find any proper reply for that query. Help me to disable the root password or how to reset the root password by editing my customized .iso.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Prakash.
