Missing Documentation: Live ISO Login Credentials

Description

The default login credentials for the StratOS Hyprland live ISO are not documented anywhere that I could find. This makes it difficult or impossible for new users to try out the distribution.

Where I looked

  • GitHub repository README
  • GitHub repository wiki (if available)
  • stratos-linux.org website
  • Boot screen messages
  • Release notes

Current situation

  • Username appears to be prefilled as stratos
  • Password is unknown
  • Common defaults don't work: stratos, live, user, root, hyprland, (blank)

Expected behavior

The live ISO login credentials should be documented in at least one of these locations:

  1. The main README.md file
  2. A dedicated INSTALLATION.md or USAGE.md file
  3. The official website
  4. Displayed on the boot screen or login screen
  5. Mentioned in release notes

Suggested fix

Please add a section to the README.md similar to:

## Live ISO Usage

### Login Credentials
When booting the live ISO, use the following credentials:
- **Username:** stratos
- **Password:** [actual password here]

After logging in, you can explore the system or proceed with installation.

Additional context

This issue affects anyone trying the distribution for the first time. Without valid credentials, users cannot access the live environment to evaluate StratOS before installation.


Note to maintainers: If autologin is supposed to be enabled but isn't working, that would also be worth investigating as an alternative solution.
