You could 'man sudoers', and edit /etc/sudoers, then code the script so that your chosen regular user could 'sudo modprobe kvm-amd' with no password... Or you could run the script as root but have it run the vm part using su or sudo, though the first option is probably better. :-) Later, JP PS--I'd be interested in seeing a preso/demo on setting up and using kvm/qemu for TurboTax for Dummies... ----------------------------|:::======|------------------------------- JP Vossen, CISSP |:::======| jp{at}jpsdomain{dot}org My Account, My Opinions |=========| http://www.jpsdomain.org/ ----------------------------|=========|------------------------------- Microsoft has single-handedly nullified Moore's Law. Innate design flaws of Windows make a personal firewall, anti-virus and anti-malware software mandatory. The resulting software arms race has effectively flattened Moore's Law on hardware running Windows. ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
