Correct, but it does ask you to "name" your computer, if you dont then it
will be called "localhost".

It (the install process) also asked you to define a "root password", at the
logiong prompt type "root" then type the passwd you defined.

? You did not "define a passwd", then boot linux with 'init 1' or 'linux 1'at
the lilo prompt to gain admin access.
