if you change your mind and want to change the password, there is a way. do not use this "tutorial" unless you know what you are doing, and it might not work on all devices. you can run "mntroot rw" to make the filesystem writable, then run "passwd" and it will ask you for the new password. when you are done run "mntroot ro" to make the filesystem normal.

i only tested it on my kt2, and nothing broke. be careful with terminals because you can write/delete (almost) everything if you did not run the "mntroot ro" after "mntroot rw."
