The first time you boot Linux, you'll be greeted with the following:
localhost login: _Linux is waiting for you to log-on. Each user has a username - allocated by the user 'root' (often called the Super-user). However, until 'root' has created more users, the only username available to you - for logging in with - is 'root'.
localhost login: root Password: _Now enter root's password (which you allocated during installation). That's it, hey presto, you're in!
Note
To log out a user, enter either 'logout' or 'exit'. If Linux ever reports that: 'There are stopped jobs.', simply enter 'logout' or 'exit' again.
The quickest way to shutdown Linux is to press <Ctrl>+<AltGr>+<Delete> (Referred to as The Vulcan Death Grip).
