[xubuntu-users] Lost sudo access

[honeyshell]

Hi Keith,

- boot on live cd
- click on the "/" partition
- open terminal
- sudo nano  /media/*mount_path/etc/group*   (adapt "mount path)
- find *adm:x:4:* and change it by adm:x:4:keith  (if your login is "keith")
- save & restart on your xubuntu
- log with keith account, sudo should work
