Easy! 1. Enable the Maemo Extras repository 2. Install openssh 3. Define a root password (openssh's installer prompts you for this) 4. Open xterm 5. ssh root at localhost Type the password you set in step 3. No 3rd-party packages or R&D mode necessary. For extra geeks like me (warning: vi knowledge necessary): 6. visudo 7. Add user ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL root ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL at the end.
