.TH LH_TESTROOT 1 "2009\-06\-14" "1.0.5" "live\-helper"

.SH NAME
lh_testroot \- ensure that a system is built as root

.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBlh_testroot\fR [\fIlive\-helper\ options\fR]

.SH DESCRIPTION
lh is a high\-level command (porcelain) of live\-helper, the Debian Live tool suite. It simply checks to see if you are root. If not, it exits with an error. Debian Live images must currently be built as real root.
.PP
Support for using \fIfakeroot\fR(1) and \fIsudo\fR(8) internally in live\-helper itself is still experimental, however, calling a helper yourself with sudo is safe.

.SH OPTIONS
lh_testroot has no specific options but understands all generic live\-helper options. See \fIlive\-helper\fR(7) for a complete list of all generic live\-helper options.

.SH SEE ALSO
\fIlive\-helper\fR(7)
.PP
This program is a part of live\-helper.
