No such luck, but thanks for the suggestion.  su -m, su -c, etc. all 
complain that there is no such file as "usr/pkg/bin/bash" which, of 
course, I already know.  toor is nonfunctional, apparently by default, 
so that option is not available.

This is becoming vexatious.  If "sudo" was present by default, the 
problem would be readily solvable.  I think I saw that on the ftp 
server, so I'll have to get that installed.

I think that this point I'm going to have to kill in the hard way, boot 
into single user mode and fix it from there.  I hope I can boot into 
single user mode, that is.
