Archiso: Where do I set root password?

I've got a custom script for creating an automated installer with Archiso.  I need to have the root password set automatically.  Where in the process should I do that?  I've tried systemd-firstboot, but it's not working.

Re: Archiso: Where do I set root password?

Where? Probably in the installer script.
When? Best you do it after pacstrap.

That being said: Are you actually using Arch Linux?
If you are you should know, how the installation process works and how to automate it.
Also, you should not expect too much support in what you're doing here, since third-party installers are generally not supported in these forums.
