  If you haven’t set a password before, then it should be the default one: empty. Then, to use sudo you will need to set one by using passwd command.

  In case if the password was set in the past: the only way would be to run factory reset, or restore from image.

    Booting from any rescue Linux system and removing or editing /etc/shadow in the overlay partition would work as well. No need for a factory reset.

  You have to manually edit /etc/shaddow

      You have to boot from another OS, mount the drive, then do it

  Have you installed anything else on your deck already in desktop mode, like Decky loader, emudeck, cryoutilities?

  Some of those have an option to set a default password to something like “deck”. If you clicked through the setup on those it might have set a password without you realizing.
