I found it and since OS2008 uses the same gainroot mechanism and the deb doesn't contain any binaries, just a simple sed command that short circuits the /usr/bin/gainroot script to not look for the R&D mode flag, it works like a charm. Installing the following and typing 'sudo gainroot' in a terminal worked for me to gain root access. Then I set a passwd for user and ssh'ed in using that account just fine and I can escalate privilege as needed. It may work for you too but I make no guarantees. http://eko.one.pl/maemo/dists/mistral/user/binary-armel/becomeroot_0.1-2_armel.deb /Mike ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Is becomeroot available somewhere for OS2008? I found that to be a nice neat way of doing the config hackery needed to enable root without R&D mode. /Mike ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
