Sorry.
Allright.

Menu (upper left corner), then search for the Progr.-Manager (white sheet of paper with lines, ble square on lower right as icon).

Please consider to take a look at the wiki.

9000, what you want him to do simply is not possible. To install packages in the terminal, you need root rights. For root rights i the terminal, you need rootsh.

See the error?

If it still asks for a password for the above command then we should think of something else, like copying the binary for you directly.

Just feel free to raise any question. I can help you as much as I can as long as I'm around the computer. ^^

When you attach the USB to your PC, it should ask you whether you'd like to connect as mass storage or pc suite, choose mass storage. Then in your computer you should find a new drive. Copy the file to the new drive.

Detach the USB, and return the drive back to your N900. Type the following command under xterminal:

Code:
cd MyDocs
sudo dpkg -i rootsh_1.8_all.deb
The commands are case sensitive.

Please refer to the following wiki if you'd like to reflash instead:

That is what we are trying to do. A please or something would be nice?

Try reflashing, that is the only thing besides using 2/3g to download the rootsh package.


As I said, look at the wiki. Good thing, that is.
