A failure to become root would not result in either of these commands giving "not found" errors since the "cd" and the "ssh" commands are in the default user path. You may see permission denied, but not a "not found" error.

Can you please send us a copy/paste of what you are actually typing and what it actually is telling you so we can see what's happening?

The first thing to check is that you are not typo'ing the commands. In your example here you said:

"ever time I type in sth.."

So there's an example right there showing that typos are a formidable enemy for ya.

Okay, where to start....


You did:
~# cd/etc/apt/sources.list.d
sh:cd/etc/apt/sources.list.d: not found

There's no space between the cd command and the directory your trying to navigate to. Try typing:

cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d


You did:
~# cd /usr/share/applications
sh:cd /usr/share/applications: not found

The directory/usr/share/applications is valid so I'm not sure what the issue is here. Try becoming root with the below command, then navigate to the /usr/share directory and perform an ls to see what the deal with that directory is.


You did:
~#ssh root@localhost
root@localhost's password (typed rootme)
Permission denied, please try again

The root user is not allowed to ssh to the N9. To become root using the rootme password, the command is:

devel-su
