Jerry,

I ran the install again later on and was presented with the request to set the root password.
I must have got too excited when I ran the initial install.

Sorry for the late reply Ian,

Ok, "school server prompt" is that a command or login prompt?
"having not entered a root password during the install" as in you were
not prompted for one or you were prompted but just left the files blank?

I've never left the password prompt blank, so I'm unsure if that would
result in being presented with a command prompt without having to login.

Jerry
