There's exactly one superuser account in any Linux/Unix system, 
the one with UID=0 and username "root". You can't create a "new" 
one.

If you must give more than one user the superuser privileges, use 
the "sudo" mechanism. See "man sudoers" and "man sudo".

Choose a long enough random character string, don't write it 
down, don't login directly to root account (use su) and don't 
tell it to anyone.
