I got the openssh deb from here: http://maemo.org/maemowiki/Applicati...b23c6c80b9d4f2

From the description, it reads as if I need to be root to install it.
1. How do I become root? There's this thread http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ead.php?t=1098 about becoming root without flashing .
2. Is it really necessary to be root to install openssh or is the installer-workarounds mentioned in that thread above good enough?
