Dear Kamaljit,

If the startup directly takes you to the XWindows Logon, you can access the
text-based shell by pressing ALT+CTRL+F1 (F1 to F6) while in XWindows for
Shell1 (TTY1 to TTY6). Then you can login and use the shell. In XWindows too
u can run XTerm for getting the shell.

Please lemme know if you still stuck.

Cheers

Arminder
