root login

[ehelfer]

Hello revpi team,

I would like to login in jessie with root user in the terminal!

I need root permissions in order to install my programs.
The command "su" asks me for password, but I cannot find it in the documentation.

Thanks and best regards,

Etienne

Hi,
as typical in Jessie images root has no pw in our distribution.
So simply use "sudo su" and you should be in super user mode...
