I have a VM that I use for testing that has TinyLinux installed on it. It works great, but when I typed in ‘su’ it would ask me for a password which i didn’t set.
After doing some hunting, I found out that typing ‘sudo su’ in terminal window gets you root access. From what a co-worker told me, this is an old school function that is rarely/never used.
