Since I couldn't use Zerere (see #43), I searched through Fedora docs and found https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/reset-root-password/#sect-how-to-reset-the-password-from-emergency-or-single-user-mode, which seemed like a solution to set up a root password locally and start working without need for Zerere.

Well, those docs simply don't work for Fedora IoT as it seems.

If I append rw init=/bin/bash to the exec line, indeed I boot into a root shell. But I tried:

• passwd, change password, reboot.
• /sbin/useradd, add new user with a home, reboot, try to login as that user.

None of them worked after reboot. So is there any way to change root password without network access?
