When you did your install of Mandrake or what ever one you are using you
are instructed to create a user with a password.  You are also told to
put a password on the root access.  If you did not then I would recommend
doing the install again and this time WRITE DOWN THE PASSWORD so you can
use it the next time you need it.  That is what I have had to do, besides
you learn more about your system and find that more software will be add
the next time you do an install.  Why this happens I do not know, you
would have to ask the "GURRUUES" at 'Macmillan' and co.

I thought I knew that I knew what I thought
But now I know that what I thought I knew
Isn't what I know I think I thought I knew.
