Hi all,

The 'su' issue looks like it is being caused by line: 36 in 'vm.py' of
live-wrapper 0.6.

Removal of '--lock-root-password' and rebuilding a base image e.g.
'sudo lwr -d stretch', creates an image that once installed allows
calling logging into 'su' with the password you as the user entered at
install time.

Regards

Phil
