I'm getting permission errors as well, when I try to use fsck to fix my 
external sd card. After reading more about terminal IDE, I think using it as an 
Android shell is using it(Terminal IDE) wrong. It's a java developer tool on 
android. I will look elsewhere for an android terminal. Which is a shame, 
Terminal IDE was almost there. Not needing to root a device is extremely nice, 
if you also want to tests your apps on the device. The sudo program would be 
handy.
