Problem getting access to config file to rotate 7 inch screen

Hi

I am trying to rotate the 7inch screen on a Cerbo.

Did follow the advise and settings for Superuser and managed to login via PUTTY. But, when trying to get to the bottom of /u-boot/config.txt to add lcd_rotate=2 (as suggested by @mihair), it only says:

root@einstein:~# /boot/config.txt

-sh: /boot/config.txt: No such file or directory

I can successfully reboot via PUTTY, but need advice on how to rotate the screen please.

Leon

@leonras The boot sequence and setup on a Cerbo is very different to that of a PI. While I believe that u-boot may be used it is not on the root file system, even with a PI it would be within the /boot file system. You will need to find the actual boot partition.

That said, I am not sure that a CerboGX is designed to have any of it's boot p[partitions or boot configuration modified.
