ubuntu switched root user prompt "Authentication failure"

Creative background:

ubuntu switching from ordinary users to root

Knows how to be su root command, switch to the root user, then will be prompted for a password, but also how not to lose, suggesting "Authentication failure",

At this point there are two kinds of situations:

One is really the wrong password is entered;

Second, the newly installed Linux system, did not set a password for root.


Set a password for the root user:

sudo passwd root

enter password,

And confirm the password.


Then click Change directory listed below

#切换到root用户,还是进如到普通用户所在的目录
su root   
#切换到root用户,并且进root用户所在目录
su - root   
#切换回到普通用户
su 普通用户
