Thank you. I'm not sure but I don't think you can supply your password on the command line to su. But I would advise you to have a look at 'sudo'. It takes a little more effort but with this you can configure your system to give you the necessary permissions without too much hassle. Read the manpage and if that doesn't help (I seem to recall it's all a bit complicated) just google around a bit I'm sure you'll find some good tutorials. greets, Wim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Problems recognising second debian sarge CD
since you have installed the base system, why not use some debian mirror do the rest. i have another question: is the Sarge CD detect your SOUND Card during the installing process? as a newbie i can not config the sound card after a installed Woody in my linux box.

knoppix is really a wonderful live linux CD. it have enormous hardward detection ability. it can drive our sound card automatically.. i wonder if there is a kind of ?noppix live cd which can detect all you hardware of your Box and just give you a base linux system.
