Some questions

to edit files that require root privaledge simply type

 

Code:

su -

 

the - after su is important.

 

once done, you are logged in as root, and can edit files using a variety of methods, the editor i'd suggest you learn is called 'vi' and while it appears hard to use at first you'll get the hang of it after a while

 

vi /path/to/some/file

 

to see your hard discs as root type

 

Code:

fdisk -l

 

thats -l as in larry

 

cheers
