Search for package rootsh and install with HAM, standard application manager (after having set the repo mirrors correctly).
Then sudo gainroot is your friend.

Could I have installed it from the terminal as well? With what command? I tried apt-get install but it asked for root.

Nope, hen and egg problem.
You need rootsh to get root access in terminal.
But how did you install? (my memory is fading and I am not sure if tapping this downloaded file in file manager launched HAM and let it install, like on N9/Jolla now).

I think if thou have not yet read the wikipage here in maemo forum thou could. Then instruction page "perfect setup for N900". But I am also curious have thou tried the Application manager and set up the working repositories? If not, do it. If need help for it, ask, and thee shall be given.

I need root access to run commands like this:
apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
I run su, sudo, sudo gainroot, etc. But I can't run the update commands. The password is wrong, I have tried 12345, 0000, rootme and my unlock code but nothing works.
I have read in the following link that installing OpenSSH can be solved:
https://wiki.maemo.org/Root_access
But I run apt-get install OpenSSH ... and it needs root permission too.
sudo passwd root doesn't work for me either.
When I run "apt-get update; apt-get upgrade" (with and without "su") I get the following error:
E: Could not open lock file / var / lib / apt / list / lock - open (13 Permission denied)
E: Enable to lock the list directory
E: Could not open lock file / var / lib / dpkg / lock - open (13 Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/ var / lib / dpkg /), are you root?
What I can do?
