SuperKawaii, wait,    breathe deep!
i've seen that you post basical question... so, what do you think to read something before posting?
This is linux, you can do anything you want with terminal and password.... Please read at least the base!!

'cause if you don't want use terminal, came back to winzoz and forget bbox-linux-hacking and so on... There are reason if can't "drag and drop" inside file-sistem folder, and the reason is to avoid to make disaster... if you really want write outside user space you need to be root (or sudo user). I have to remember you that our disclaimer tell:
QuoteTo be able to post topic on forum you will need to have already familiarity and basic knowledge on UNIX/Linux systems, the required knowledge is mandatory to be able to use BackBox and to ask for support on it. If you are beginner, please go first for "Linux Basic System Administration Tutorial" to get some knowledge, otherwise you will have some difficulty on BackBox tools usage which will create only confusion.
then could be a beautiful thing that you try yourself to understand at least the common command!
Please, help us to help you!
Bye bye and happy learning

"none born learned", but you must keep in mind that this isn't a distro for beginner... none avoid you to use bbox, but you can't ask help for the base! you can download any other distro and install tool you need, and google is your first friend, what you ask you can find on google... you are welcome to ask support for the bbox's tool, not for the common linux command... Do you understand?
Tool's inside bbox need a long time experience, so first you need experience, otherwise you can't use them!
bye bye and happy learning ;)

ok fine lol u understand ill try to be less on a nuisance :)

but please can u just answer me one question and i promise i swear i wont be annoying please

how can i edit passwd file?  i mean when i try to edit it with text editor it says permission denied

how do this

weVeg

ok, don't worry, even this is a question for google, i'll answer you... you don't need text editor, there is a simple command, open a terminal and type:
passwd

this prompt you a line where you have to insert your actual psw, then you can insert a new psw... this is a way to change psw for your user..

i read in a thread that nubbix started that if i edit the passwd file  from username:x:1000:1000:username,,,:/home/username:/bin/bash

to username:x:0:0:username,,,:/home/username:/bin/bash i will be able to log in as super user

but when i go to edit the text it say permission denied :(

superkawaii, please, this is my last reply.... I suggest you to don't follow stupid thread, if you want change psw read above, you are invited to respect the forum also to don't waste time who help you. Follow the thread, don't go off topic, and don't ask silly questions and most important you are invited to make your own knowledge about basic linux administration, internet is full of tutorial, please read it, then we are happy to help you!
good night and happy learning, man.
