You need to enter the Users Name and User Password as apposed to the Root Password.

Quite often on new installs the Root & User Passwords get mixed up. Particularly with people familiar with Windows.

Install the OS again and this time write down the Root Password, The Users Password and the Users Name. Remember that these are Case Sensitive so you need to enter the Password & User Name exactly as it was originally entered so when you write the details down remember to include Capitals.
