-<title>Single-User Mode</title>

-<para>In single-user mode, all Nix operations that access the database
-in <filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/var/nix/db</filename>
-or modify the Nix store in
-<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/store</filename> must be
-performed under the user ID that owns those directories.  This is
-typically <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>.  (If you
-install from RPM packages, that’s in fact the default ownership.)
-However, on single-user machines, it is often convenient to
-<command>chown</command> those directories to your normal user account
-so that you don’t have to <command>su</command> to <systemitem
-class="username">root</systemitem> all the time.</para>
