    y|yes	- set password for root
    no		- I'll do it later
%

    The superuser (root) has unlimited powers - he can read, write, and
    delete any files regardless of permissions.  So unless this is your
    personal home computer it's not a good idea to let just anybody to
    log in as root.

    We'll run the 'passwd' program.  It will ask you to type the password
    2 times (4 times if it's too short).  Type it in and terminate with a
    <return>.  The characters will not be echoed on the screen.  Write the
    word on a piece of paper before you forget it.
