Uhm, the message said "Don't log in as root, use su". The difference
is not that you should log in as "su", but that you should use the
su program to gain root access. The difference is that when you su, a
log entry saying who su'd to root is generated.

For a single operator machine, you can ignore this message.

Take care,

P.S. the message lives in /root/.login
