How to run a full Bash terminal in Bionicpup64?

How to setup an extra terminal in Bionicpup64 that
executes ordinary Linux Root commands(found online or in Linux books)?

Copy from Terminal in Bionicpup64:

root# inxi
No such command found
root# /bin/ash inxi
/bin/ash: inxi: No such file or directory

Inxi is not important, just an example.

Re: How to setup Root with password?

Hi. Thanks a lot; it works. Was searching a bit to find the sr0 (dvd, in filesystem, dev), then skied straight through. Seems Grub4Dos is in sda1(ext4), and frugal installed Bionicpup64 (& saved session of bionicpup64) in sda3(ext4). Sda2 (fat32 with EFI, flagged esp) is unnecessary, probably. Don't ...

Re: How to setup Root with password?

WOW ! Definitely newbie friendly. dos not gpt. Thus Grub4dos. I guess it is 3 things messing it up: 1. Apple (as you described over, and before that added a "bug" mentioned elsewhere. Btw: Most Mac commands online dont work in old Macs). -comment: left MS cos was "charged for thinking"; opening ...

Re: How to setup Root with password?

Trying to use 64b kernel(, but seems 32b is forced into it). After wrongfully installed 32b i386 into my old 64b Macbook, it has crashed several times, and other problems, too (see below). Bionicpup 32bit & Bionicpup64 are the only distros accepted to be installed now. Puppy Package installer wont ...

Re: How to setup Root with password?

I am trying to edit in my fully installed Bionicpup64 according to advice in Grub4dos to edit menu.lst and Advanced.lst.
Strange that the iso 9660 is read only; makes Root useless or close to it, or not?

Re: How to setup Root with password?

Reason I wanna change to 64b kernel is that this Mac 2,1 is 64b not 32b.

Re: How to setup Root with password?

Script in menu.lst seems to ignore bionicpup64 cd & force 32b kernel in. Changed the script part to correct kernel bionicpup64. But i386-pc part is loaded in boot procedure ("trampoline 32", probably). Script part from menu.lst in Grub4dos: "title Find Grub2\nBoot up grub2 if installed errorcheck ...
