Ubuntu 22.04 Root Login on Shell Command Line Terminal

Login as Administrator on Ubuntu Shell

Hi! The Linux Tip Simply shows you How to Get a Login as the Root SuperUser on Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy LTS Shell/Terminal/Command-Line.

In Unix-like computer OSes, root is the conventional name of the user who has all rights or permissions (to all files and programs) in all modes (single- or multi-user).

On Unix-like systems the user with a user identifier (UID) of zero is the SuperUser, regardless of the name of that account.

Be Cautious because the SuperUser has the Powers to Execute All Good/Bad Actions and Commands on GNU/Linux Shell.
