[PLUG] Installing Slackware on Jetway

The installation finished, but there was some confusion during the step 
where I created a password for root. It never accepted my second entry 
of the password. Unfortunately, the keyboard I'm using is not one that 
lends itself to touch typing, and after the last attempt I must have hit 
something that it took, and it told me the installation was finished. 
After removing the install USB stick and rebooting I'm asked to log in. 
I try to log in as root, but it doesn't like the password I thought I 
put in.

So, unless there's some way to do the password over, I'll need to do the 
install over. Not a big deal, but an annoyance.

Recommendations?
