If I confuse X (as I may have right now) I can still login on at a tty with one of: Control+Alt+F1 Control+Alt+F2 .... Control+Alt+F6 Then as root I am presented with a question, then a selection list of rolls to login with. Is it possible to annotate these in a way that invites new users to make the most appropriate selection? Assuming I am close, something like this. [1]root:sysadm_r:sysadm_t (default) administration and user management roll [2]root:staff_r:staff_t minimum privilege for root, "newrole -r role" expected [3]root:system_r:system_t "DO NOT USE -- reserved init, daemons and kernel." -- T o m M i t c h e l l /dev/null the ultimate in secure storage.
