Comment(by haduong at centre-cired.fr):

 I too get PATH issues when I login as myself, then do an  su  to root.
 Root has a non-empty password here. This prevents some  opkg  post-install
 procedures, as I get errors like:

 {{{
 Configuring kernel-module-hci-usb
 //usr/lib/opkg/info/kernel-module-hci-usb.postinst: line 11: modprobe: not
 found
 Configuring kernel-module-usbserial
 /tmp/opkg-intercept-1498-0/update-modules: line 1: update-modules: not
 found
 update-modules: No such file or directory
 /tmp/opkg-intercept-1498-0/depmod: line 1: depmod: not found
 depmod: Illegal seek
 }}}

 A workaround is to ssh as root directly.
