How to reach Endian Firewall via SSH if a fresh installation does not boot and I would like to reach the machine when the installer finished to install all packages?

  1. Switch to the console (Alt-F3)
  2. Chroot into the installation using:

    chroot /harddisk
  3. Mount proc:

    mount -t proc none /proc
  4. Mount devpts:

    mount -t devpts none /dev/pts
  5. Start SSH:

    /etc/init.d/sshd start
  6. Assign an IP address manually:

    ifconfig ethX ip.ip.ip.ip netmask mask.mask.mask.mask up

    replace ethX with the interface you need to use, for example eth0 and  ip.ip.ip.ip and mask.mask.mask.mask respectively with the ip address and netmask which you like you have.
  7. If you need to have access from internet, set the default gateway with:

    route add default gw gw.gw.gw.gw

    replace gw.gw.gw.gw with the default gateway to be used.
