Ubuntu- No users in 'Root' group and current user not in sudoers file

  • 772

I accidentally removed my only user id from 'root' group, I don't have a 'root' user account. It also is not in sudoers file. What do I do to get back root access or at least restore sudoers file to older version?

    Reboot into single user mode, or boot to a rescue CD.

    Either method will allow you to modify your /etc/sudoers file.
