How to connect using SSH

[Michel De Meester]

Hello all,

<bad English mode>

I am new to embedded stuff, developing on linux and Android is als very new.

I hooked up an A20 board with a 10"TS and loaded the right Android image in the NAND by using the USBotg port and phoenix suite.
So far so good, everything is working fine Android boots up.

I also hooked up the "debug cable" and connected it to my windows machine, by using PUTTY configured to use the comm port I can follow the boot process.

How can I use putty to make a SSH connection to the A20 board so I can login remotely.

While connected to the serial port I just can follow the output but can't enter commands.
Configuring Putty to using SSH on the IP address of the board gives a network error.

Someone can point me into the right direction?

If I remember, there is no SSH daemon started in Android, although it maybe have changed since recent Android images.
You can also install Android application SSHDroid (I'm using it on my tablet), or use "adb shell" from Android SDK.
