Hi!
How can I get root access in the SDK?
I want to addgroup, but I am told, that only root can do this.
After installing rootsh and setting up sudoers, I get the message:
sudo: must be setuid root
after trying to gain root access.

As the name implies, fakeroot only fakes root access. It works OK for some things that only need filesystem-level root permissions (eg installing packages) but fails for anything that uses system calls requiring real root privileges (eg ping, mount/umount etc).

Ok, I've replaced the sudo binary with sh script that contains only

Code:
#!/bin/sh
fakeroot $@
