afaict the distributed image des not have any user other than root and
root's password is "disabled".

There might be some first-boot scripting that installs user "pi"
password "board" with passwordless sudo but I couldn't easily see how
that'd work.

If not, you should mount the image (before copying to the device) to
chroot and set password and/or user. for later ssh access.
