== Warnings and caveats
You must use the user account you created following the installation process, at first boot, for daily use and the *root* account only for system administration. Avoid using *root* for any non-administration usage, since the account makes it easy to create security or data risks.
There are several potential risks to keep in mind when using the [command]`sudo` command. You can avoid them by editing the [filename]`/etc/sudoers` configuration file using [command]`visudo` command.
