Can't SSH with putty on windows :-(

[spinalcode]

Hi, when I try to SSH to my Pi0, putty just hangs after entering the password. The Pi seems to refresh itself in some way at this point (perhaps ES is reloading?).
I can connect with filezilla although it says that the connection is insecure.
However,I need to expand the file system, which I can't do without SSH?
Any ideas?

Hi, yes I had this problem, too. I think this is a problem with the default tty to which the SSH gets connected. For a work around try the following:

1. Connect Putty to your Pi by SSH
2. End emulationstation from its Start Menu. This should free the tty and you should be able to enter commands in Putty.

Please test, if this works for you.
I will try to fix this bug as soon as possible.

That seems to have worked fine. I did have to "chmod +x reformat.sh" and resize.sh before they would work, but all seems good so far. Thankyou.

Thanks for the info! Will fix this, too.

Is there any chance that this will get fixed eventually?

Hey! I don't think this will get fixed in the near future. Best bet is to use the mentioned work around.
