What is the command to get into mandrake 10.1?


I dual booted mandrake 10.1 with XP. It says "Local host login" so I put my login name, then password. Then I get this ross@localhost$ kind of looking thing. What do I put to get into linux? I cannot figure it out. Thanks!

You've logged in, so you're in Linux..

If you want a graphical environment, try "startx".

I tried it just now, and it says "No such file or directory"
