You need to enable RootLogin in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, see  FS#46235

that you for the tip
this works for me:

passwd
echo "PermitRootLogin yes" >> /etc/ssh/sshd_config
systemctl start sshd

My change on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Install_from_SSH:

It is also required to allow root login with password authentification. To do it add PermitRootLogin yes to /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
