Hi
I emailed lastnight about this question.
I logged in as root. Root is the only account on my boxes.
I would use say Xterm to edit a file. I would 'Permission denied'
I then go to the file manager or a text editor and I can do it.
The problem happens with Linux, Solaris7, and FreeBSD.
With BSD, I only have Xterm and I tried to compile the kernel but that fail 
because permission denied when I went to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC.
Remember, I logged in as root.

Is there something I should do during installation???

Thanx
