Get That far and went to exit by entering_exit...got Shell[bin/bash] entered_exit again. then got an intimidating notice about changing the shell entered n as this seemed like the aforementioned 'Dangerous and stupid' move. So just shut the terminal window down and then rebooted at the login entered my new user name Password:...never entered it.
I looked at all of the above links. My goal is for mathematics software and I would like to take the time to know that as soon as I am out of Root.
