Description Daniel Villeneuve 2010-11-14 17:03:29 UTC 
Description of problem:

Possible typo in <quote>Use the root account only for system administration. Create a non-root account for your general use and use the su command to change to root only when you need to perform tasks that require superuser authorization. These basic rules minimize the changes of a typo or an incorrect command doing damage to your system.</quote>

s/changes/chances/ in the last sentence?

Thanks Daniel; there's beautiful irony in "minimize the changes of a typo or an incorrect command doing damage to your system", but I've corrected it to "chances" in build 1.0-8 nonetheless ;)

Cheers
