RE: strange install problems

You can edit the file directly if you prefer. I was just trying to provide you with a mechanism which would allow you to regenerate your /etc/passwd file in the future without needing to re-edit it each time. But if that's not a concern for you, just run your favorite editor and have at it! ;-)
