What command must an ordinary user type into a terminal window in order to become root?
This will depend on the distribution. Most Linux distributions allow you to assume root by simply entering "su", followed by your password. Ubuntu-based distributions disable the root account by default, and you are expected to use the "sudo" command before any command that requires root privileges (ie. sudo rm -rf /). You can gain a root shell by entering "sudo su", followed by your password.
