[Libguestfs] [PATCH v3 7/7] rescue: Implement escape sequences.

Richard W.M. Jones rjones at redhat.com
Sat Mar 4 15:11:06 UTC 2017


This implements a few useful escape sequences:

><rescue> ^]?
virt-rescue escape sequences:
^]? - print this message
^]h - print this message
^]i - print inspection data
^]q - quit virt-rescue
^]s - sync the filesystems
^]u - unmount filesystems
^]x - quit virt-rescue
^]z - suspend virt-rescue
to send the escape key through to the rescue shell, type it twice

^]i

root device: /dev/sda3
  product name: Fedora 25 (Twenty Five)
  type: linux
  distro: fedora

^]u

unmounting filesystems ...
[   21.158558] XFS (sda3): Unmounting Filesystem

+
+Virt-rescue supports various keyboard escape sequences which are
+entered by pressing C<^]> (Control key + C<]> key).
+
+You can change the escape key using the I<-e> option on the command
+line (see above), and you can disable escapes completely using
+I<-e none>.  The rest of this section assumes the default escape key.
