Reboot to specific OS based on command

[pcmedicjax]

Is there a way to run a command via ssh that will reboot the RPI2 to a specified OS.
Scenario:
I have an RPI2 with BerryBoot and 3 OSes on it. Raspbian, Openelec and Retropie.

Openelec is the Default OS right now.

What I want to do is if I am watching a movie in kodi and want to play a game after that I want to be able to use my smartphone with raspSSH to tell the RPI to reboot to Retropie. or Raspbian if i want to surf the net.

Yes you can edit

Code: Select all

root=/dev/mmcblk0p2

in

Code: Select all

/boot/cmdline.txt

though replacing all of boot is recommended

You can also add a button to do that for you in kodi with "Advanced Launcher".

I don't think I understand your reply. I am looking for a simple command line thst can be sent via ssh ie;
sudo reboot os1 or
sudo reboot os2 or
sudo reboot os3

I hope this makes sense.

https://github.com/maxnet/berryboot/issues/233 and http://rvalbuena.blogspot.com.au/2013/0 ... os-on.html describe what needs t obe done.
If you create a script it's possible to run that script using ssh...

I don't think that will work with berryboot...
