According to the wiki you are supposed to enter:

sudo passwd root

and provide the password for root, and after that, you can 'su'

I get:

Sorry, try again

after 3 times:

sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts

What am i doing wrong?

First you need to provide your own password. And then you'll be asked for the new password for root.

Thanks! that did it.
