Re: root from scripts Re: [maemo-developers] Is there a convenient way of switching between usb/bluetooth/wifi networking?

My second attempt to handle stdin and also return proper exit code and avoid one shell running is #!/bin/sh # use gainroot to become root and relaunch itself and remember tty if [ `id -u` != 0 ] ; then #if not already root, call itself as root TTY=`tty` [ "$TTY" = "not a tty" ] && unset TTY sudo
