shortcut for host shell #108

Open fluoriteByte opened 2 months ago

fluoriteByte commented 2 months ago

Feature Description

This is a good idea if you are the type of person to mess up VSO pico (me) or want to access abroot without booting up the vso subsystem or other Miscellaneous stuff

Rationale

I love messing with my abroot so much, that I'm tired of waiting for libpod to close when rebooting

also adb/fastboot/mtkclient/SP Flash tool works better outside of vso pico

Additional Information

the desktop file:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Terminal=true
Exec=/usr/bin/bash
Name=Rescue Terminal
Comment=Use this when something is stopping you from resetting VSO or when wanting to access the system shell. This does not guarantee any full write access to root.
Icon=org.gnome.Console
Categories=ConsoleOnly;System;
StartupWMClass=kgx

An alternative approach would be adding an entry to the right click menu of the original Console desktop entry.

I don't think this is possible with Black Box, which we switched to now. Maybe we need to install two terminals. One for the container and one for the host shell.
