Typically on Linux you need to add "single" to the kernel boot arguments. See for example https://askubuntu.com/questions/132965/how-do-i-boot-into-single-user-mode-from-grub |
Created attachment 544 [details] sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set mt@mt-MS-7728:~$ sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set mt@mt-MS-7728:~$ It is the same as yesterday,when I try to write the "su chown root /usr/bin/sudo" it says that there is no password available. What do I have to do to boot as a single user. If I write chown root /usr/bin/sudo without the sudo, it says that changing ownership of root is not allowedchown root /usr/bin/sudo chown: changing ownership of '/usr/bin/sudo': Operation not permitted If your root user doesn't have a password set (as is the case on Ubuntu) you will probably need to boot into single user mode to fix the permissions.
