<para>It is advisable for all <application>Mageia</application> installations to
set a superuser or administrator's password, usually called the
<emphasis>root password</emphasis> in Linux. As you type a password into the
top box the colour of its shield will change from red to yellow to green
depending on the strength of the password. A green shield shows you are
using a strong password. You need to repeat the same password in the box
just below the first password box, this checks that you have not mistyped
the first password by comparing them.</para>
<note xml:id="givePassword">
<para>All passwords are case sensitive, it is best to use a mixture of letters
(upper and lower case), numbers and other characters in a password.</para>
