Hello,

I can now download a Chromium OS and it works fine. But I have a question. What is the root password. I coudn't read anything about it.
Who knows the original unchanged root password for the parallels chromium VM.


Thx fiveyears
 
As far as I remember, you need to either run "su -" or "sudo" in a terminal and use either the same password you used for logging in, or try 'chronos' (w/o quotes).
 
Chromium OS - userid & password

Just downloaded Chromium OS via the Parallels Virtual Machines menu. There was no clue as to how one should sign in but found my answer here in the Forum: the userid is "chronos" with no password. I had read elsewhere that one should use one's own Google Gmail userid and password but that does not seem to work.

Is there any way to change the userid from "chronos" and to be able to add a password?

Why on earth didn't you guys document this somewhere such as under help? You bragged about it when you listed the latest improvements to Parallels, you made it easy for us to download but then you left us hanging in mid-air when it came to using Chromium.
 
Chrome OS Login

I downloaded/installed the Chrome OS through Parallels yesterday and just used my google account user/pass. It brought up my mail and calendar tab already logged in.
 
Currently the version is from early this year/late last year. Any chance we can get an up-to-date build of Chrome OS or Chromium OS?
Here are some changes:
Extensions Support
"App Store"
6.x Chrome base for Chrome OS, 7.x base for Chromium OS (its 4.x in the one through parallels)
many bug fixes
UI enhancements and alterations
Chrome OS updater
Speed enhancements
Browser Sync
Login UI remembers last entered login ID
Multi-Language hooks
Settings via HTML 5 based browser windows
Chrome OS Labs
