Warning, this is a frequently asked question, some will get angry with you...

Answer: There is no root password.  If you need to do an
administrative thing from the GUI, it will ask for your regular
password first.  If you want to do administrative things from a
command line type:

  $ sudo your-command

It will ask for your password.
