    [SOLVED] No permissions/sudo in shell

    Just added a new 250g internal-drive in my karmic box, all seems OK and I formatted the partition with Gparted as ext4 but now can't create folders. Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to use a bash shell either, if I type anything in I get no problems until I attempt sudo and then I'm unable to type in a password! Any clues would be appreciated

    The password will not be echoed to the screen, this means you'll see nothing. Go ahead and type the password and then press enter.

    Thanks Mike, am not sure why I've never noticed that before...
