live CD root password??

[Beartooth]

	With F8, at least, I can log in as user fedora, with no password; 
but if I try to become root, it demands one. Where do I find it?

	I have a machine with a newly dead hard drive, not worth 
replacing, which does most of what little I still want from live CD; but 
there are a couple things that would be nice to tweak ...
