Jailmaker installation

I’m attempting to setup Jailmaker on my Dragonfish server. I am following the documentation provided and I keep getting stuck.
I enabled a password for “root”, logged out of admin, and logged back in as “root”, but now I can’t open a shell to do anything.
I logged out as root and logged back in as admin, and the shell is gone there too.
How did I screw that up?

I guess I just didn’t wait long enough? the shell came back to life in both logins after about 5 minutes.
