ok, I can try to type this mail as slowly I can, to make it more
readable.

There were two lines in my mail. You missed the first line.

D.o.n.'.t.
It means: do not.
That is: Do not run 'sbox-config -st ...'

Why? Because you don't have to.
Why you don't have to?
Because running
'sbox-config --help | grep start'
Gives you a hint that, maybe, just maybe '-st' doesn't mean 'start'
(It actually comes from words 'select' and 'target'.)

So the command is used to change the active target. You don't want to
do that, when multiple sessions are open.

Other hint, your prompt:
 >[sbox-SDK_PC: ~] > 
        ^^^^^^
For some reason system already knows a string you have writen as name
of one of your targets and even bothers to mention that particular
name in the prompt, how so? 
Could it be, that the target named in the prompt is selected?
(yes, it could)

ok?
