linux hacks


how to put a string like a "hello..", so that when the kernal loads it wont display any X system or a console. i will just put "hello.." and will hang up without doing anything.
i may have to write a simple C program to to print "hello.." and set that file's path in somewhere of the /etc/passwd file.

and also how to enter as the superuser?

can anyone please tell me how to do that?
thanks.

Sure...you get the root password, and type it in.

Seriously, do you think anyone is going to help you break into another system, or cause it to "hang up" after printing hello?? Learn some computer basics, and build trust...then maybe someone will trust YOU with the superuser password.
