first time boot

I've just installed Archlinux (following the beginners guide from ArchWiki) and booted it for the first time.
Arch now asks for "myhost login". I can't remember configuring that, and thus I have no idea what to fill in. What am I supposed to do?

Edit: I tried filling in my root password, but that wasn't it

Re: first time boot

First type "root", then enter the password you configured in setup time

Hmm, when I think about it afterwards, it's pretty logical...

Tnx for helping me out!
