Please check /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow on the nodes.
If /etc/passwd is following:
    root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
(password field is x), root password is stored in /etc/shadow.
I think password field is same as server host.
If this is diffirent, please change to password using passwd command (boot with
"init /bin/sh").

Can you use "su" to normal user?
    % su
    Password:
    #
If you can become root using su, please check /etc/securetty.
