Command line timeout

holon

Hello. I am trying to utilize the command line in Rune. I reboot, and wait for the system to come back online. The login line will appear for two seconds. If I don't enter the login, "root," the Rpi will continue booting to Rune. If I do enter "root" as the login, it will ask for the password, again giving me two seconds to type "rune" and hit enter. If I don't do it in that time, it will continue booting to Rune. If I do, I get to the command line. At this point, it still gives me two seconds, which isn't enough time to enter "sudo apt get..." and it inevitably continues booting Rune.

Does anyone have any potential solutions? Thank you!

Is this because you have 'Local Browser' enabled in settings? Try switching it off and see if you can access the CLI.

Or you can use a program like PuTTY to access it:

Hi holon,

"sudo apt get..."

This will not work because Rune is based on ArchLinux and it uses Pacman as packet manager.
What is your intention? What packages do you like to install / update?

Warning: Updating packages will most likely break Rune.

- Use sftp to access files on Rune Audio:
Get WinSCP from here and install it.
When it opens setup the following:
- Session
File Protocol: SCP
Host name: The IP address of you Raspberry Pi
User name: root
Password: rune

That's it, connect and you can transfer files just by dragging and dropping.

I do have local browser turned on. I'll turn it off when I get home. Thanks!

I'm trying to install RuneAudio Addons from https://github.com/rern/RuneAudio_Addons. I'll follow your instructions, Frank. Thanks for saving me further frustration!

Hi.

If you want to install rern's addons he has a whole extension to the UI that you can install. Then you can choose which ones you want from a UI menu. The extension handles the installation of addons for you. See here:

#5370

Much safer doing it this way.
