Re: 'sudo bash' is not 'sudo su -' ?!
what about sudo x-terminal-emulator ? Or whatever you use like rxvt or
eterm. I don't for sure because I do use "x-terminal-emulator -e su -
root" to spawn a new shell with a "password:" prompt. Also I don't
really use "x-terminal-emulator" but have a symlinx to it in /usr/bin
name "rootxterm" with it's own properties defined for my Window
Manager. But the basic "x-terminal-emulator -e su - root" should work
and get you started. Of course sudoing it would be cool too.
