Title: how3 boot to cli, then continue to x
Post by: 4evernewb on August 04, 2013, 05:40:56 AM

I'm trying to get dsl working on qemu on my tiny android

Is there a hotkey to boot to command line?
Once in command line do I just startx to continue to the gui?

You can use the boot code "2" as described in the relvant page on the wiki (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/cheat_codes.html).

Yes "startx" will run the GUI.

What model Android device are you using? It would be interesting to know how you get on.
