Try it again but are you root first?

No, I'm not. Should I?

Yup

How can I enable RD-Mode since I can't install Rootsh?

Direct link to rootsh package: http://skeiron.org/repo/repository.m..._1.4_armel.deb

~ $ sudo gainroot

Enable RD mode to gain root privileges

~ $ apt-get sudo gainroot

E: Invalid operation sudo

~ $ rootsh


Usage: rootsh [-a arg0] cmd [args...]


Use the 'root' command to spawn a shell.

If you messed up sudoers and really need rootsh to spawn a root shell, run rootsh /bin/sh.

But *always* use the 'root' command instead where possible.


~ $ root

thedead1440,
I really appreciate your help. The device was updated and I used your thread (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=88707) to create new repos and to install almost all the necessary software. Thanks.

Gyus,
The last thing I need to install is Skype. I cannot find it in the application catalogue. Which repo I should use to install it? Thanks.
