I know what I am doing. I am not afraid to crash my system, there are no chances that that can happen.
I know that many things can be done with the sudo su command.
What I cannot do with that command is to start Kate from the Dolphin file manager to edit a file owned by root... to do that I need to login, when Netrunner starts, as root.
I have already enabled the root password with the command sudo passwd root which was accepted.
What is still missing is the possibility to specify, at login time, a user (root in this case) different from the standard user generated at installation time.
I tried to search all of the file system for a configuration file containing the row :
AllowRoot=false
to change it to true, but the search did not give any result.
Can please somebody tell me how to do what I need ? Thanks.

P.S. Running here Netrunner 17.03
