Overclocking. NITDroid. Secure Shell. Easy Debian... the list is pretty long, you have a couple of days to listen?

For a normal user of the maemo system the root is not necessary. You can install and play with the normal things anyway. But if you would like to become a power user you need it. Like editing config-files, overclocking e.t.c... and it is here the real power of the n900 lays. The abillity to tweak the hell of it. I have been using linux for quite some time now but did use windows before. And i would say that the linux way is more logical though it can be confusing in the beginning. |

Re: n900 how to become a root
Before this thread gets to long and more and more people contribute or ask questions I like to end this up with a summary.
To become root on your n900's Maemo5 you need to install rootsh, then you may become root by typing Code:
root Code:
sudo gainroot If your "sudo <command>" does not work with permission denied you are probably trying to do two things at once where the first command is with root permissions but the 2nd isn't. Please be sure to know your way around at the CLI before you proceed or follow step-by-step instructions carefully! DO NOT ACTIVATE R&D MODE IF ONLY FOR ROOT PRIVILEGES |
