VERY dangerous. I do it bu then I just run a desktop and don't worry too much about messing stuff up, rebuilding takes me about 2 hours, I just burn my home drive to a dvd and restore from that.People are probably going to tell me I shouldn't "let the cat out of the bag" on this but if you WANT that level of power then then here ya go.You've been warned :)Greg BoothPS: If you do sudo <command> you put in YOUR password. You use su alone to Switch User to root and enter in roots password created above.
