Instead of using ssh, I tried with scp. This time I got a different error.

#+BEGIN_SRC shell :dir /scp:openwrt:/mnt/sda1
ls -al
#+END_SRC

The error, I think, is from the remote end.

/bin/sh: /bin/zsh: not found

Clearly, I am using zsh on my Windows, but my remote OpenWRT system only
has ash installed. Is there's way to specify the shell to use on the remote
end?
