By default, embedded Linux systems generated by Buildroot have a 'root'
account, for which the password is empty. So at the log-in prompt, just
use 'root', and you're all set.

We have a Webkit package, so just enable it in the configuration.
However, the Webkit package hasn't been updated since a while, and it
may not build properly. I know Lionel Landwerlin has posted some
patches to upgrade it, but they haven't been merged so far.
