I know I can use sudo -i but I want to change permissions for files with scp (I know I can do that with commandline but I don’t want to do it that way) so I want to enable the root login. When I type su it asks for a password and my pi user password is not it. So whats the root password?
This is a Raspbian image, so the root user is inactive by default. You can enable it by typing
sudo passwd
and setting a password

Solved. This is also required. https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/48056/login-as-root-not-possible
