I don't like the repeated 'sudo this', 'sudo that' style of doing things so I simply do 'sudo -s' and get a root prompt which works as root for as long as needed. Password for the switch to root permissions is simply your login password as long as you are set up as such in sudo. The first/only login is always set up to allow root privileges via sudo. -- Chris Green ยท -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
