How to: Run Terminal as Sudo or Root ?

If you want to run the terminal as sudo or root and want to save the trouble of entering the password everytime then follow the steps below.

Press Ctrl+Alt+T

Type in
sudo -s
You will be asked for the password once and only once. Once you are done with entering the password then as long as the terminal session is open it would still have sudo access.

Don't forget to exit from sudo session by entering exit once.
