So I was installing OpenSSH server on my N900.. made it past the point of it asking me for a new root password.

Then I dropped my phone, the back flew off and the battery came out.

The N900 started up fine again, but the openssh server does not work (I expected that to happen since it never truly finished installed)

I can "uninstall" it fine from the app-manager, then attempt to reinstall it. When I do, it tells me the installation fails, but it appears yet again in my uninstall list. Upon attempting to ssh to the n900 (localhost) it fails to connect, so it's not working.

Any ideas or help on how I can clean up this botched install and start clean with it?
