Willem, that's why I suggested you to use the command:
su - instead of using 'sudo' or 'su'. BUT in order to login as root, the user root MUST first have a password assign. So, to do so, you, as a normal sudo user (for this example, you are 'tuxon') you'll assign root's password. = Example = login: tuxon thebox password: ******************* [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo passwd Enter UNIX password: Re-enter UNIX password: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ su - password: ********** [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# Then you're ready to install as root user :D Let us know if that works for you. However, being root user is potentially unsecure so act on your own risk :) May the holly tux power be with you! -- Cordialmente, Mauricio Hernandez Z.
