How to root Genymotion Android Emulator?

Question

I have downloaded Genymotion Android Emulator for personal use. I searched over internet to root this device, forums says that via adb shell its already rooted -"agreed".

Sumits-MacBook-Pro:sdk eSumit$ adb -s 192.168.57.102:5555 shell
root@vbox86p:/ # 
root@vbox86p:/ # whoami
root

Found Genymotion configure apk, it will help to root access, if checkbox get clicked - "always allow su access", I did that as well, and then it get stuck like here. (see below)

If I restart by myself, it shows that no root access ?

May I know what I am missing here ?

Here are the pictures sequence :

I have also followed various tutorials e.g. Youtube - how to root genymotion emulator Android 7.0 but no solution yet

Apparently, there is some problem with the su binary. You can re-install it by downloading SuperSU zip archive and dropping it onto the device window. Restart will be needed.

Please note that the current version (2.79) does not seem to work due to missing /etc/fstab file on Genymotion systems. It works fine with 2.46.
