                          Suppose, I have just entered the Metasploitable 2 Linux like the following command:

    username : msfadmin
    password : msfadmin

Now, I need to gain 'root' privilege so that I do not need to use 'sudo' - command again and again. For example, in order to shutdown the machine I just want to type:

    shutdown -h 1

not,

    sudo shutdown -h 1

How to do that?
