I changed the root user password to something reasonable. I noticed that the "user" account is "locked" (!) in /etc/passwd... should I actually change that?
How can I get a decent shell on this thing, without freaking out "busybox" or doing something wierd like installing a package that renames bash to bash-m... After looking at the various cross-dependencies, it would appear that doing anything serious requires dumping busybox and replacing it, but synaptic, etc. insist that everything that makes the box functional is dependent ont the busybox package... so, what do people do in this case?
