need to get bash from /system/bin please

My phone doesn't have bash so could someone please copy there's and give to me... my phone is cyanogenmod 3.6.5 US. Please attach
Upgrade to 3.6.8. I *think* bash is included. If not, its quite simple. Read up on it in dream development. Someone complied it and has attached it to his/her thread.
When I run debian it says that there is no file by the name of bash what do I do now

bashrc or profile file for terminal emulator
This is a response to a thread that got redirected here BC I have fewer than 10 posts. On some custom roms the shell init file for Terminal Emulator is /etc/mkshrc. You can put an alias here like alias s='sudo bash' for example to start a bash she'll. Bash's init file is then /etc/bash/bashrc.

Hello. I found that when I unpack and pack the boot.img, although I did nothing with the kernel, I still lose the baseband. The same thing happened when I use my PC and Linux. The size decreased by 2.5MB. I dont know why.

Installation questions
Hello,
I want to say thank you for porting Sailfish to the HP Touchpad :good:. Soon after I saw this thread, I ordered a used device from ebay (73€). As I am now waiting for the delivery, I am preparing myself to get Sailfish to the device.
I found a guide to get CM 11 to the device on rootzwiki from "RolandDeschain79" (as I am new, I can't post links here).
In step 5b where you have to copy the CM11 files to the "ttinstall" folder of the device, what files exactly do I have to put there? I have two zip files from the first post in this thread (Cm11 and Sailfish).
Is it OK to first copy the extracted CM11 archive to the ttinstall folder and then flash android first?
How do I proceed after that?

TPToolBox is for installing Android only. You'll have to use the specific instructions in the Sailfish thread for anything else. I know nothing about Sailfish, so that's about all I can help you with.

OK, thank you for replying. Can you tell me, if I have to extract the zip file before copying to the folder on the device?
I still hope, someone who has done the complete procedure could answer to my questions.

No unzipping, leave the files as they are. That's typical for most all of the flashing you will do.

Ok, thank you. That was a missing part of the puzzle for me.
I think I now have a clue how to proceed with the flashing procedure.
It's quite challenging to find all of the informations across the web to get Sailfish to the Touchpad. Since flashing an operating system to a device is always a sensible act, I don't want to do anything wrong (and eventually brick the Touchpad ).
When I have my Touchpad and everything works out OK with Sailfish, I will do a small guide for other beginners (like me).
