root password

Hi,

I'm trying to play with Exadata (version 11.2.3.2.1, Linux/x64) and VirtualBox.

I know that it is hardware dependent, and will not work on my VM.

I downloaded the files "cellImageMaker_11.2.3.2.1_LINUX.X64_130109-1.x86_64.tar"

and "computeImageMaker_11.2.3.2.1_LINUX.X64_130109-1.x86_64.tar", and built the ISO images using makeImageMedia.sh.

I am able to boot with the 2 images (both cell and db).

The problem is the login. I googled for "exadata root password" and found some,

like "root/welcome1" and "root/changeme", but it doesn't work.

I also tried "root/exadata", "root/root", "root/oracle", "root/oracle1".

I tried the same passwords for "oracle" user, also fails.

I also tried to boot using "linux single", but it doesn't boot in "maintenance mode".

How can I manage to login into these hosts using "root" account?

Thanks in advance.
