Re: [Brickit] root password for VMware image

[Raik G. <rai...@cr...>]

Hi Reid,

sorry, that bit of crucial information was indeed missing on the wiki. I've 
tried to fill in the gaps:
http://brickit.wiki.sourceforge.net/Virtual+server
Please, feel free to edit the wiki if you find anything else missing or badly 
described!

So the default login is brickit and the password is brickit, too. There is no 
root account on Ubuntu systems, you will have to use sudo from the brickit account.

BTW, you may also want to check out the development branch, where I have added a 
real Biobrick View with links to your local samples and the MIT page of that 
part (if applicable). The instructions for switching are on the same wiki page. 
After the switch, the old "Edit repository" link won't work. Go to 
your.server.ip.address/parts instead. Well, if you want to fill in real data 
right now, you are still better off with the stable branch.

Good luck!
