Hi,
I've been talking with a lot of members of maemo.talk, and i cant solve my problem.

I just reflashed my N900 (First the flash image, then the EMMC, without rebooting, all goes good there).

Then, i tried to install rootsh (1.5 and 1.8), it says install sucessfull but i can use it well.

When i use sudo <command> sometimes it say i dont have permissions, other times prompt for password.

I've this problem since last 4 days, i'm getting crazy, the only thing i make was reflash my device

If i do this on x-terminal:
sudo gainroot
dpkg -l rootsh

The output is:
BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso26+0m5) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
/home/user # dpkg -l rootsh
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name Version Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii rootsh 1.8 Enable root access, via the "sudo gainroot"
/home/user #


I've tryed already to:

sudo gainroot
dpkg --purge rootsh
apt-get install rootsh

But stills the same problems, stills the same information with erros.

Can you please help me..i'm so tired, my last 62 hours was reading and talking with people, no one can help me.
I just reflash my device, i've tried to do again 2 ou 3 times, but the same problem.

Qwerty12..please can you help me..i'll be appreciat to the rest of my life

I'm so sad..help me please.."
