How to display all products on my homepage in magento 1.7

I managed to display new products and product by category with these

{{block type="catalog/product_new" column_count="6" products_count="3" name="home.catalog.product.new" alias="product_homepage" template="catalog/product/new.phtml"}}

{{block type="catalog/product_list" category_id="10" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

But I actually want display entire products in my store regardless their categories, is it possible?

My root category id is 3, so I tried with this line but no luck at all,

{{block type="catalog/product_list" category_id="3" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

Any ideas?

I am using the sample data to test magento, so I have this below in the data,

Root Catalog (0) 
    Furniture (7) 
    Electronics (42) 
    Apparel (66)

EDIT:

home.phtml

You can edit your home.phtml file and fetch the products manually

$products = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->load($your_category_id)
->getProductCollection()
->addAttributeToSelect('*')
->addAttributeToFilter(
    'status',
    array('eq' =>'1')
);

And for all products you can do this

$products = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')
->getProductCollection()
->addAttributeToSelect('*')
->addAttributeToFilter(
    'status',
    array('eq' =>'1')
);

  1. Step 1: Login into your Magento Admin Dashboard;
    1. Step 2: Go to: CMS -> Pages -> And choose Home Page;
    2. Step 3: Now you must see the some edit options which will be applied for the HomePage.
    3. Step 4: Go to: Contet Tab from left;
    4. Step 5: Add following snippet in the WYSIWYG (As know as “What You See Is What You Get”)

;

{{block type="catalog/product_list" name="home.catalog.product.list" alias="products_homepage" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}
