Always worth mentioning that having root user enabled can be
a significant security vulnerability. That's why it's not
activated in default state of OSX, having the "sudo" command
line functionality available instead. And if Kynan's system is
in this irregular a state after his actions, this root being
available even tho the system seems not to know it seems
worth being concerned about.
