Re: su -s not working on TS-109II?



Hi, thanks for the tip, but sudo is not installed, and I can’t install anything since apt-get requires root access, or at least sudo. 

Maybe I left the configuration half-finished when I used the serial console? I don’t recall this part.

sudo passwd root

(confirm new rott pass)

su -

now your prompt is using # and you are root

Indeed there are only a handful of passwords I temporarily use for systems that aren't open to the Internet. Tried all of them, but it didn't succeed.

I clearly recall that it worked using the serial console, though.
