how to crate new super user from terminal in fedora core 3

[Jerin Jacob K]

Hi Yogesh

Create one use with adduser command

$adduser xyz
$passwd xyz

open /etc/passwd

$vi /etc/passwd
	go to last line of passwd file

Change user id and groupd id to 0,0
	xyz:x:506:507::/home/xyz:/bin/bash
	      ^^^^^^ 	
		to
	xyz:x:0:0::/home/xyz:/bin/bash
