On this screen you can create a root password. A root password can
contain any number of characters, but only the first eight
characters in the password are significant. (For example, if you
create ‘a1b2c3d4e5f6’ as your root password, you can use ‘a1b2c3d4’
to gain root access.)
You will be prompted to type the root password twice; for security,
the password will not be displayed on the screen as you type it.
> If you do not want a root password, press RETURN twice.
