I'm only developing the SL4A interface for Android 4.x based devices. I'm putting together a procedure on SB Google Code that will be a tutorial of sorts on how to install ScriptBasic (scriba and it's extension modules) on an un-rooted device. Scriba should run on earlier versions of Android regardless.

John, I love your sense of humor!
Congratulations on your wonderful tablet. I think you got the best one out right now, so happy developing and testing on this beauty!

At this point I'm not planning on rooting my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 device. I find it more of a challenge to create a usable Linux terminal environment and still keep the device a virgin. I'm having fun finding out what the SGT2 can offer to scripting language environments like Python and SB. I think ScriptBasic has a fair chance at people taking the language seriously and using it to glue (customize) their digital world.

Root is similar to Apple Iphone’s Jailbreak. Thus Jailbreak gives the user the ability to change theme, download apps from 3rd party app stores – it still doesn’t give you that amount of power that you’ve achieve when rooting your device.
As i’ve said in the previous article – this is at your own risk!
This is for the Samsung Galaxy Tab! – In order to achieve root on this device, you must first synch it with kies, then disconnect it, then enable USB debugging mode and the launch an homebrewed program called “SuperOneClick” – with that press “ROOT” and you’re rooted! However you’ve still doesn’t have any Custom Kernel or recovery system installed at the moment, this can be done by using the software called “ODIN”.
As you can see – the Samsung device is A LOT easier to Root than the HTC device. This generally applies to all HTC’s and Samsung Devices.
1) Install Samsung Kies – this is used for installing the necessary drivers that we are going to use for the Samsung Galaxy Tab.
2) Synchronize your Tablet with Kies, just once would be enough to install the drivers. Disconnect the Tablet. Please ensure that you’ve doesn’t use any other launcher other than the default Touchwizz launcher! Many have reported that the Tablet won’t synchronize, but that’s just due to Samsung that have made the software capable of only detecting the device when running the default launcher/home replacement.
“It is important to install the drivers correctly in order to have any communication with the device. The method for HTC devices is similar as the Samsung devices.”

Don't get caught up in all the rooting hype. I am glad I didn't root my tablet and although I like the stuff on my rooted phone, it is not stable and if I could go back to the stock ROM I would. It is just so easy to get caught up with it reading the articles and watching the videos on youtube. Just look at that red sign you got in your post. Those will keep you out of trouble and happier!
