I actually found that shortly after sending my origenal message on the
releng page. I haven't grabbed it quite yet, but if there's not the
root password in the readme, is there any idea what it is? Does this
version have root logins disabled as well? If I set this up, I'll need
to set a static IP on vmware, then just type in the commands to log in
and boot up ssh so that I can log in remotely (as a screen reader
doesn't work with vmware).
Thanks,
