To do something like that, log in as root and type an echo command
assuming your user account is hank: echo 'hank ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL'
/etc/sudoers <enter> then reboot the system and log in as hank. Once
done type sudo -H -i <enter>. Next type exit <enter>. To run a command
as root temporarily type: sudo -H command <enter>. On Tue, 29 Mar 2016,

I know you already acknowledged this, but it generally a very very very bad
idea to allow full root access in this way.
First, you could just log in as `root`. That gives you full root access.
You could also add your user to the `admin` group.
But your simplest solution might be to just your user to the `sudoers` file.
