Maybe I can help with this one, Sid.

First step is to install "sudo". So, ... with your package manager see if
"sudo" is a listed package. Barring that, try "su -", enter your root
password and do "apt-get sudo". At this point, you will need to use the
command "visudo" to add your user to the sudoers list. Google this for more
complete instructions. Finish by exit from the root bash prompt to exit
from root.

Then you should be able to use "sudo apt-get install <something>".
