I installed Raspbmc on my Raspberry Pi. It's working fine but I'm not able to find the terminal.

How can I go about finding it?

Exit xbmc from the menu (not shutdown). At the white screen, press Esc. You should now have a login prompt. Username: pi Password: raspberry.

To start xbmc again:

sudo initctl start xbmc

or reboot the Pi.

Note that there is a site specifically for Raspberry Pi questions (that aren't generic Unix/Linux ones).

dose AltCtrlF1 work?, and maybe other F keys. This works on many Gnu+Linux operating systems. AltCtrlF7 is usual for X11 (to get you back), though it is not universal, so experiment.

Is your raspbmc set up on the network? If so, I'd recommend just connecting in via ssh from another machine rather than via the local console. That is normally dedicated to the XBMC interface.
