I do the reboot prior to the USB connect. Once I've clicked on reboot, I wait a second and then plug the USB cable in. Once the reboot is finished, the USB connect/cancel popup shows up. Unless I've enable the Auto-USB gadget in which case, it just connects.

It's another NickelMenu item that turns on the telnet server. Once it's on, I just use Putty on my computer to connect. The NickelMenu item is shown below.

Code:
menu_item : main    : Telnet             : cmd_spawn      : quiet: /bin/mount -t devpts | /bin/grep -q /dev/pts || { /bin/mkdir -p /dev/pts && /bin/mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts; }
     chain_success  : cmd_spawn          : quiet: /usr/bin/pkill -f "^/usr/bin/tcpsvd -E 0.0.0.0 1023" || true && exec /usr/bin/tcpsvd -E 0.0.0.0 1023 /usr/sbin/telnetd -i -l /bin/login
     chain_success  : dbg_toast          : Started Telnet server on port 1023.
The connection has really high security NOT, user is root and password is blank.
