But as there is no real root account (or no with a working password) on xUbuntu maybe instead of:
> For xUbuntu year.month run the following as root:
you could write something like
> For xUbuntu year.month run the following after getting privileges with sudo -i (and exit after that):

or add

[CODE]sudo -i
[...]
exit[/CODE]
to the listed code?
