    How do you scroll in the terminal??

    I've been searching around can't figure out how to scroll within the Ctrl-Alt-F2 terminal. Shift-Alt-Up/Down, Alt-Up/Down, two/three-finger scrolling do not work here. I'd also like to paste stuff from the browser, though scrolling is a priority. You could pipe the output of a really long command into the "less" command, but this command isn't installed. How do you scroll?

    I don't think you can in Ctrl-Alt-F2. However, if you press ctrl-Alt-T then type: shell that should put you into a terminal in which you can scroll.

    That did the trick. Now does anyone know how I can exit the crosh terminal (like you can with the F2 terminal) without having to use the exit command?

    Okay, I realized that pressing Alt-Tab allows you to switch back to the browser. Works just like it does in other OSes. Yay!
