I have two methods for doing this. First, I'm messing with su from our rootfs and changing the install script to cat it into bin and sbin under system. The other is using androidupdate.tgz to put them in place and then init sets the perms. If you wanted to test either of those, that would be awesome



I am around, and if you wanted to shoot me a patch, I can take care of that. If it's just init code, I can do a diff, check the changes, and commit. Just let me know

i know it was mentioned some pages ago, but i'm not able to move any apps to the SD card. any solutions to this? even using App 2 SD to indicate which apps can be moved, i'm getting "Failed to move application" notifications at every attempt. i'm using a 4gb microSD card and a sprint cdma tp2

I believe this is still due to us not having a real root. It looks like when we took /bin out of the PATH, we no longer had access to /bin/busybox. In our initrd, we have /system/bin/sh pointing to /bin/busybox. I'm testing pushing the latest su to /system/bin/su, copy /bin/busybox to /system/bin/busybox during install, and then ln -s /system/bin/sh /system/bin/busybox. We'll see how that works out.
