raspi root login?

So, I downloaded and have running the pre-configured/easy raspi image this site provides - and it boots, and I can login to the emoncms running at the HTTP site, but what about if I want to login on the console?  I assume login = root, but what's the password?

End game; I have a Ultrasonic module attached to the raspi GPIO pins directly that I want to use to graph a water level, I have no need for other sensors or the emonTx at this time.  Anything else to point me in the right direction is appreciated.

Re: raspi root login?

In respect to users, you have two:

1. - pi with password raspberry

2. - root: You´ve to put the password. To do this:
       a. - enter in the Raspi as "pi"
       b. - change the root password with sudo passwd root
       then RasPi asks you to enter the new password and confirm that. Finished you can log in as root

 

Best regards.
