Cannot log on to FreeBSD LiveCD

Hi, I just download FreeBSD LiveCD and burn it to the CDROM (Because I want to learn UNIX). But when I boot the computer from the CDROM, it display the username and password. I type "root" and the password blank. But it does not allow me to login. I try many user name and password that I guest but it could not allow me to login. Could any one give me any suggestion to solve the problem? Does any one know the correct user name and password to log on FreeBSD LiveCD??? Please let me know.
