If you have performed the first reboot, you are no longer installing; you are now in the process of configuring. You should be using a non-root account now, only going into root through su(1) or sudo(8). Simply logging into the root account is sloppy, dangerous, & teaches nothing. Using a non-root account will show you when specifically root access is needed.

What should I write there ?
I can only assume you are referring to ~/.xinitrc as I can't read your mind, & you certainly aren't overly specific in your messages. You earlier quoted Section 11.5.2 which answered this question. What follow-up questions do you have?
