If you are loged in as a regular user in any GUI or text screen, you can open a
command line window (from GUI), and enter "su" at the command prompt, then the
root password at the resulting prompt, or simply use the "su" command at the
text screen prompt.
The root user is the admin. account for the OS. Be carefull what you do in
root, since the OS will let you do most anything you want to. For the most
part, the safeguards provided for "normal users" are non existent for the root
user.
