Thanks Andrew, Can someone fix the guide, maybe to a step-by-step guide so it is clearer? Shuould I just follow the no editor instructions? Can any of you post the file as it sould be? Should I just follow the sudoers instructions? If I follow the sudoers instructions now, before re-flashing, will it work? Thanks!
