Are you thinking system-wide or just the first user?

As i'm looking at /etc/profile

if [ "`id -u`" -eq 0 ]; then
  PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"
else
  PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games"
fi
export PATH

Thinking of using sed to change...

from:
PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games"
to:
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games"

I can't really touch /etc/os-release, as any stable update might blow
that away...

But i set it up similar to Angstrom:

debian@beaglebone:~$ cat /etc/dogtag
BeagleBoard.org BeagleBone Debian Image 2014-01-16
