Some doubts after installation

[alejandrovk]

Hi there,

I have some questions about Xbian. I managed to flash it to a SD card and start it with no probs. But for some reason, I never managed to run xbian-config as suggested in the guide, so now when booting I'm always getting directly to XBMC. Everything is working fine, but I'd like to do some tweaking...so question is, how can I get a shell once XBMC is started? So I can run xbian-config command.

Many thanks!

exit from XBMC or over network from SSH

Hello again,

If I exit from XBMC I get a blank screen and nothing happens....is the prompt supposed to appear? How can I check if SSH works? I never managed to specify the IP address the RPI should use, so I guess my router gave it a random one (DHCP). I could try to telnet to several IPs to port 22, but still not sure if SSH was enabled by default...

Thanks

to check your ip look under system info
and yes SSH is enabled by default
