Hello,
I just created a patch for the original firmware image which is
downloadable from [see below] that modifies /etc/sudoers to allow
execution of any command as root.

        # Download and unzip firmware image
        wget http://nds2.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/Nokia_770_software_update.zip
        unzip Nokia_770_software_update.zip
        # Download and apply patch to modify sudoers
        wget http://wwwcip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~sithglan/770/sudoers.xdelta
        xdelta patch sudoers.xdelta SU-18_0.2005.40-18_PR_F5_MR0_ARM.bin sudoers.bin

After that you can Flash the firmware using this utility:

        http://nds2.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/Nokia_770_software_update_wizard.exe

Oh and don't forget to check the md5sum of the resulting image to be:

        115765809c9d1d1b071a8313920d232f

Greetings,
        Thomas
