I fixed it. I changed the password using grub boot loader.

Foss is Free & Open Source Software.

Yeah during installation there is no provision for providing root password. You can set it later by executing the command sudo passwd root or else you can crack it by passing init 1 at boot loader which will lead to root shell. Sudo serves as root
