Jukka Salmi,
Yeah, its like Ptero-4 said. In normal install, i think first created
account is by default in sudoer's list and one can use sudo for root
privileges, where as in expert install, root account is enabled and
your normal user account is not setup as a sudoer. But since you are
logged in as user (since root-login at start-up is also disabled in
expert mode) and hence cannot run any of admin apps even with sudo as
your user acc is not a sudoer.

This thread helped me solve the problem rather than re-install in
normal mode:

Hope this helps.
