You need rootsh to get root access in terminal.
But how did you install? (my memory is fading and I am not sure if tapping this downloaded file in file manager launched HAM and let it install, like on N9/Jolla now).
Yes, I was able to install rootsh just by clicking on the .DEB file. It was so easy.

Then I also tried to install backupmenu by clicking on the .DEB file, but it didn't let me. I installed it with apt-get install backupmenu (later I realized that this application is installed by default).
