Recover the root password

If you lost your Steam Deck root password (of course I did not lose mine):

• Steam Deck Recovery Instructions
• make a bootable flash drive:

bzcat /path/to/steamdeck-repair-image.img.bz2 | sudo dd if=/dev/stdin of=/dev/sdX oflag=sync status=progress bs=128M

• Shut down your Steam Deck if it isn't already off. Hold 'Volume Down' and click the Power Button - when you hear the chime, let go of the Volume Down button, and you'll be booted into the Boot Manager.

• sudo ~/tools/repair_device.sh chroot should chroot into the installed system, but there is a bug. Thus do it manually using relative paths:

cd /dev
sudo steamos-chroot --disk nvme0n1 --partset A
pass deck # to change the password for the deck user
