Scroll though till you find 'rootsh' and highlight it.

Follow the instalation wizard from there.

But you know what? If you can't make it through the apps manager UI to d/l a ready made package, I really, really don't think you're ready for root yet.
well i dowloaded the "rootsh" from this site and the file shows in the "files"

In all honesty its really not that difficult. When i did this on my phone it took a total of maybe 2 or 3 minutes. If you feel any sort of uneasiness about this then if you have any buddies that have Linux/terminal experience i'm sure they'd be able to follow the directions i posted above easily.

Explain that you know it can be done by a complex method, but ask if someone would be willing to ake an app for it instead for people like you and me who don't like getting blood on our hands by messing in root.

Asked nicely, the developers are an incredibly helpful bunch!
did u ask em? =O

You didn't need to download the deb file.. you can delete that.

I would strongly recommend against try this at this point.. unless you can get someone to walk you through it, as you're doing it, through PM's or IRC or something.

A local Linux geek could help too .

Not using rootsh.. the thread I linked to and the OP mentioned WinSCP. So I explained how to do it in SCP and lfcobra explained how to do it with rootsh.

Both are separate processes.. both would work... both at this point - should not be attempted without full understand of every step.
