[QUOTE=Jorian;5004]Yeah, well, "passwd root" doesn't work...

But "sudo -i" does it well

In fact, the user name in Linux Deploy is the name of a basic user ('cause of vnc, witch doesn't like root), but he's sudoer, with the default password "changeme" (and not "toor"). Like a basic Ubuntu conf.

End of the story, anyway, and thanks for the good ideas.

Try "sudo su" and then you can change the password with "passwd root"
