How Can I change the Root Password?

[ukbrian]

I don't think it is possible to change password on a live system as the iso and dvd image is read only. No?
I might be wrong though.

Thanks Rok
How about if I put the ISO on a USB? or summat

I do the stranges of things sometimes, good road tester, just been reading about Deepin the Ubuntu based distro with a desktop done in HTML5, seems the right approach to this old fool, cross platform etc, they've changed to a 12 month release cycle from 6 months.
