Bringing up the console Random notes
- Boxee Box uses RedBoot console to boot up run_boxee and Boxee - to get into RedBoot attach a USB keyboard and hit Ctrl-C within the 2-second window (this is how it should work, however, I've had no luck)
- If Boxee is running, simply telnet into Boxee Box by ip address and port 9090 - this will bring you to a "connected" screen showing the connection and what the escape character is, upon invoking the escape character this brings you to the 'telnet>' command prompt which uses standard telnet commands:
telnet> status
- Connected to 'ipaddress'
- Operating in obsolete linemode
- Local character echo
- Escape character is 'escapecharacter'.
telnet> display
-

Once in telnet you should kill run_boxee and Boxee in that order to bring up the live console, where we can make changes such as disabling running Boxee at bootup, which I was unable to accomplish
-
When Boxee is compiled for "Canmore" this is what is enabled/disabled: ./configure $DEBUG_OPTIONS --host=i686-cm-linux --disable-dvd-drive --disable-mysqlclient --disable-fontconfig --disable-vdpau --disable-ss-rsxs --disable-vis-projectm --enable-external-python --enable-boxee-hal --disable-avahi
