--- Comment #3 from Daniel Tameling <tamelingdaniel@gmail.com> ---
When I upgraded there was a merge conflict for /etc/master.passwd. I had to
keep the line for root from the old install as that had the password. The n=
ew
line is the default without one:
  root::0:0::0:0:Charlie &:/root:/bin/sh
The password is the second column and it is empty and the man page says "If=
 the
password field is empty, no password will be required to gain access to the
machine."
Did something similar happen for you and you used the new file?
