Boot-time USB debug mode
Revision as of 12:50, 23 July 2023 by Nicolas Mailloux (talk | contribs)
InkBox OS' boot-time USB debug mode is a special, root-kernel-exclusive boot mode that allows users to access a shell on the device via telnet
. It also starts an FTP server that eases file transfer between a computer and an InkBox OS device.
Accessing boot-time USB debug mode
Write the value true
to the BOOT_USB_DEBUG
flag (see Boot flags).
USBNet access
The default telnet
server is available at the IP address 192.168.2.2
when the device is connected to a computer. It spawns a shell in the init ramdisk environment.
Credentials
The user name is root
and there is no password to enter.
FTP server
The default FTP server should be accessible with your default FTP client, such as lftp
.
