What must I do to setup my accounts with keepass-backed info?

I have accomplished so far:

  • ssh-ing to the phone
  • devel-su -ing
  • setting a root password
  • installing nano to forbid root logins in the sshd_config
  • mkfs.btrfs... -O ^noext or on the sdcard to make the sd-card formatted with btrfs (which I use on all my other computers anyway) - for now, it shall be a data-only card, so I do not want to mix it up with the internal storage as suggested here in the forum
  • I manuall mounted the card at /media/sdcard, but it is not seen as such external storage e.g. in the ownKeepass-App. I also have no idea if I have to put it in /etc/fstab or not
  • I chowned the card to the nemo user
  • as external storage its not seen so i ln -s ed it at least into the desktop.
  • installed signal and threema
  • installed sailbox and ownkeepass to get my account keys.
  • Now I want to setup a google (yes, I know) mail account with a VERY long and cryptic key, but can't paste into the password field.

What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to setup accounts via ssh-terminal? Would be kind of clumsy to have to type in 20+ special chars...
