It is  not that I can not read carefully, but that I had found that the 
su command could not be run due to my only password being rejected. I 
therefore hoped that sudo would do and that is why I spelt out that I 
had used sudo not su. I had been given advice to use sudo in another 
situation because su was not accessable with my known password.

I have just found a way of changing my root password so that I can use SU.

I appreciate you support and I am trying to follow your instructions but 
at the time I could not do so because I did not know how to access the 
root with the passwords that I remembered.

Here are the results.
