In case you have the memory-cpu-run applet you could from the desktop: sudo cp 
/media/mmc1/passwd /etc/passwd
"command returned with exit-code 1" - the actual user has no unlimited
sudo, only the additional one has this.

This can also be done with gpe-filemanager. I don't know if you'll have enough 
time before it reboots, though.
how can i gain root-privileges in the gpe-filemanager? if i try to
overwrite the existing one, i get an error telling me that i don't
have sufficient privileges.

it won't reboot, the lifeguard-reboot is disabled.

Anyway, I think maemo's bash is not in /bin/bash but in (i think) /usr/bin/bash 
or something.
i'm not sure, but it worked with 'su user2'

thanks for your replies, i'll try marius' idea tomorrow.

kind regards,
patric
