---------------------------------------------

Good idea. It makes sense to prompt at bootstrap.

> In OpenDaylight we rely on Karaf as our pre-packaged download, which has =
the slight caveat that non-customized downloads can easily be vulnerable if=
 users enable ssh with the default password.
> It would be nice if the startup script could generate a random password f=
or root, so the installation is secure by default. Not sure what the impact=
 will be on usability, though.
