Alright!!!

I didn't stumble over anything. Instructions are well laid out (IMO).

Oh, I never used the terminal app so when I had to run as root I didn't realize the password requested is not the one I use to login to my machine.

I had to assign a password to run as root:

sudo passwd root

To proceed, enter your password (Mac password), or type Ctrl-C to abort.

Password:
Changing password for root.
New password:
Retype new password:


You may know all this already. Just spelling it out for others.
