I'm using 16.10 Ubuntu Gnome. When I try to use sudo in command line, it says that I'm not in the sudoers group, and "this incident will be reported".
What should I do?

1Your don't have `root` privileges. to add yourself in `sudoers` you need root password and add yourself in `visudo`. – Rahul Nov 23 '16 at 14:38

Add yourself to the adm group in /etc/group by editing the file (logged in as root).
If you aren't root (which most people probably aren't), follow these steps: https://askubuntu.com/a/165248/595510.

okay, so hold Shift till GRUB comes up, then press `e` and add the following kernel options: `rdinit=/bin/sh`. – Nov 23 '16 at 15:08
