Thats a warning only.


The ideas is, to first log in an an unpriviledged user, check that nothing
suspicious is happening, you're on the right machine, etc, and only then get
root privileges using the "su" program (which needs typing the password, so
you want to make sure your terminal is connected to the right machine, etc)
