Using the Android Scripting Environment (ASE), I can run Python scripts on the Android emulator that ships with the SDK. However, I want to run the scripts as root/superuser for some reasons, like creating log files and some more.

Like the actual phones, can the emulator be rooted to execute these scripts as root or some superuser?

Thanks in advance.
