lxde as root [SOLVED]

[hitsware]

Previously I downloaded (from the Wizard)
LXDE with the run as root option.
Now I have gone back to LXDE, but as guest.
(since it is no longer on the Wizard)
How can I modify to boot as root ?
Or redownload a boot to root version ?

Hi
at the boot screen,hit the TAB key and add login=root,..hit enter to boot.

If you want it to be permanent, add this cheatcode "login=root" to the APPEND line in /boot/syslinux/porteus.cfg

That works ..........

That doesn't .........
Here's what I have:

APPEND hd0 1

How do I add ?

hi, not in this way,you have to open the porteus cfg and choosing the option you want ,add the login=root in the APPEND line.
APPEND initrd=initrd.xz changes=/porteus login=root
something like this

@ hitsware
(as root) open /boot/syslinux/porteus.cfg (on your boot device)
scroll down to the first APPEND line,which should look similar to this:
APPEND initrd=initrd.xz changes=/porteus
now add login=root,so it will look like that:
APPEND initrd=initrd.xz changes=/porteus login=root
save it..reboot..should work
