Hi,
While the subject of root passwords was on the screen I wonder if I may
ask a question ( another of saying help::)
.
My problem is that I have a corrupt "repository.dialog" file. I copied
a line across to the file with a space in it, and now Ubunto does not
like it.
My intention was to delete the file and restore the backup file both
which live in etc/apt. The problem is that this file
etc/ap/repository.dialog is a "root" owned file.
I have tried chown, sudo chown etc etc and looked everywhere for a
written answer. I have been unable to find an answer so that I can
either get in and edit the file or delete it, Can someone please point
me in the right direction.
Thanks Taipan899
