So, can anybody summarize? Also, can I become root without using SSH to do so?
2. "Becomeroot" package must be installed or device in R&D mode
Install the Becomeroot package by adding the following repository to application manager:

Alternatively see the maemo.org wiki for details on how to enable R&D mode.

So, after I install OpenSSH server, I can set the root password. When I try to use sudo, it doesn't work at all. If I try sudo gainroot then I get yelled at that I am not in R&D mode and that I would only want to enter that mode if I want to break my device (nice warning about root...). When trying to figure out what that is all about, I have seen talk of a program that allows you to enter blue pill and red pill modes but I haven't heard much about what that was talking about either.
So, can anybody summarize? Also, can I become root without using SSH to do so?
