Resizing root directory - telnet connection problems

P.S.: The whole section from the first of my two questions is (copied with its original formatting):


connecting to your device in recovery mode

  • older Linux (e.g. Debian Jessie):
    • typing ifconfig -a should list a new device usb0 (or a greater number, if you had other usb devices before)
    • configure this device with: dhclient usb0
  • new Linux (e.g. Debian Stretch):
    • typing ip address list should list a new device without ip-address. In my case: enp0s20u1
    • configure this device with: dhclient enp0s20u1
  • type telnet 10.42.66.66 to connect to your SailfishX device

You should now see:

 Jolla Recovery v2.0

Welcome to the recovery tool!
The available options are:
1) Reset device to factory state
2) Reboot device
3) Shell
4) Perform file system check
5) Run sshd
6) Exit
Type the number of the desired action and press [Enter]:

You can select option 3 to get a shell on your SailfishX device.

(!) Please be careful about what you are doing and respect the warranty warning!

Hint: “devicelock code” is the code you have to enter to unlock your device in normal operation mode (after your display was off for 10 minutes or longer).
