Centos 8 - efa installation - root user

Post by bostjanc »

Hi.
After completing efa installation wizard on fresh centos 8 my previous root username and password does not work any more.
This is probably intentional setup behaviour, but how can you update server after that with yum command.
If I try to do it it says it needs root user.

You may change the root password after completing the EFA setup.
sudo passwd root

Then enter you're new password for root. As per reading, there is no effect in EFA doing this.
