Terminal Emulator HELP!

[NYZ93]

ok when i open up android terminal emu it shows a money symbol on the line i type in (is that normal??)
When i click enter all i get is #

Yes it's normal. What are you trying to do?

[jdx]

# is superuser, $ is normal (at least thats the way it was on the G1 and i think its unix std)

[Matth3w]

I have superuser permissions and Bugless Beast 800mhz and I have $.

[jdx]

Well, i dunno how it is with the droid, but usually it is like that: you start the TE, its $; Once you type su and actually are superuser, you'll get #.

this is correct.

[Matth3w]

Oh ok, yeah then that is the case. I thought you meant as soon as you opened it.

but then how do i get it to say allow like the rom instructions say its supposed to

[jdx]

I am not too sure, what you mean, but:
- you open the terminal emulator
- type su and press enter
- the superuser tool will prompt you, whether you want to allow this application (in this case TE) to access superuser rights
- you click on "allow" or, if you want "always allow"

Again, this is how it works on the G1.
