OK, here is where I get confused:
1. Logging in as User-Joggler Password-Joggler I expect to need to use sudo or switch to su, however I get the error that neither of these commands are known -sh su not found
2. Logging in as root I thought the password was blank, however i'm unable to log on this way

It's highly likly that what I'm trying to do won't work anyway, but I can't even get pas tthe login!

(I'd like to install the Chrome browser and use Netfllix and Chromecast from the Joggler)

I'm using Roobarbs SqPOS so the users may be different, I presume you're on some sort of stock OS?
Have you actually had any unauthorised errors when logged in as joggler and running a command that should require root permissions? If the SU and Sudo commands aren't available I'm wondering if they're needed anyway, the Joggler user might already have root permissions anyway.

Think is has root permissions. Never had any need to even try sudo/su on stock OS (PnP III).

Edit: Confirmed below by a man who knows rather than thinks!

If you're using an OpenPeak OS of any type, there's no sudo. You just do - you're already the root user. :)

You don't, I'm afraid; not on the OpenPeak OS. There are no repositories that support it.
