user root en kn-remaster (using knoppix 7.2!!!)

[wjp79]

Never, never, never boot and use Linux (in this case Knoppix) as root! This is a mortal sin.

Yes yes, I know.. The CD is not used outside this building, I dont care about security. This is a special project and only for internal use. I need this to run a couple of scripts at boot, or a way to run scripts and create directories without
"sudo".

Or is there a way to give the user " knoppix" root privileges. I just dont want to "sudo su".!!?
