Just for the lighter side of a Penguinista's life, here are some other
easy ways of getting a crippled Linux system:

1) use your girlfriend's first name as your root password.
2) give your most trusted aid your root password(ever heard of good
friends turning out worst enemies? ;) ). Hmmm... I guess a Unix system in
general would be more secure if it had only one supreme administrator. ;)
3) get a computer imbecile (ahem, you are living with many of them all the
time) to turn off the power without proper shutdown and then let him boot
a pirated copy of a Windows bootdisk(ohhh boot virii? ohhh you
little boot virii? hehehe). And if he didn't use fdisk since he thinks
that the partitions are "wrong," consider yourself lucky. ;)

I hope I don't make people mad with this.
