Rootsh – Get root easily.
Updated 2012-02-03 18:20 UTC – Stable Quality
Free & Open Source license
Allows you to use “sudo gainroot” without having to enable RD-Mode.
There is also an simpler “root” command which correctly sources the root .profile and environment.
There is also an rootsh command which allows you to quickly run a command on the same command line without using a root shell (like sudo)
You can find this package as rootsh in the diablo and chinook extras.
