Grazie Agostino! Solution #19 worked for my system as well (9.04 wubi upgrade 9.10), I can reboot and shut down safely. Edit command didn't work for me, so I installed Kate as suggested by alex #48 (by the way, his mistake was to write "unmountfs" while it is "umountfs"). Thanks again! -- Unabl

alex, Ubuntu is set up very differently from how you may be used to with Windows. Here are a couple things to remember: The root is also known as the "Super User", hence the 'su' in the sudo command. Therefore, any time you *need* to run a program from the terminal as administrator (which should
