Innosilicon have changed the root password in the 22nd Dec firmware release
root access is no longer supported until the new root password is cracked

Root access is the only way I could repair my A4+, since there IS NO TF card slot, none of my miners can be flashed when they fail.
I've had to repair the software on one miner every day, so far. So, not looking good for the future of these things.
GOD DAMN INNO.... My miners are all G19 without the card slot.. so I feel VERY unsecure with the miners at the moment. I have had one issue which resulted in a bricked miner and was only recoverable by accessing the busybox and removing all ".pyc" files (some of them apparently got corrupted by unknown reason). Now that this is not an option.. I have asked for the password but I'm afraid they won't respond or don't share it.
I have been thinking about cracking the password but my skills in that area are limited to bruteforcing. If there is someone clever enough to give me some pointers for more sophisticated methods, they would be most appreciated... I
made a wordlist for 8 characters long password, all starting with the word "inno" and rest characters are all lower & uppercase alphabets and numbers.
This method is slow as hell. If someone is willing to share the work (ie, I'd cut you half of the wordlist or sth), it would be also most appreciated.
EDIT:
The password wordlist: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5apflpal6rbs3ar/inno_pw.rar?dl=0
When unpacked it's ~130MB.
