Step 4 - Boot the PiĬonnect the Pi to power and give it a few seconds to boot up. If you plan on setting up more Raspberry Pis like this, my advice is to save these two files so that next time all you need to do is copy them into the SD card and you’re good to go. Now copy them to the root of the SD card (the drive called “boot”). You’ll need to modify this file ( country, ssid, psk) according to your network settings. Configure NetworkĬreate a file named wpa_nf with the following contents: country=USĬtrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev Configure the network (we do this so that the Pi connects automatically to the network)Ĭreate an empty file without an extension named ssh (for now, you can just save it to the Desktop).Step 3 - Headless Configurationįor this step, we’ll need to do two things. Then, just hit Flash! and you’re good to go. Otherwise you’ll just format the wrong drive loosing all it’s data! ⚠️ WARNING! Make sure you select Raspberry Pi’s SD card and not a different drive. Then you need to select the SD card you want to burn the OS to. img file that you want to burn to the SD card. img file), you’ll need a proper software to install it on the micro SD card.įor this, I found that the easiest and more recommended solution is Etcher.įirst, you need to select the. It doesn’t really matter witch one you choose for this tutorial because both can be setup without a monitor. Raspbian Lite (you use the terminal to interact with it - if your project doesn't require a monitor, choose this one).
Raspbian (you use the standard graphical interface to interact with it - for projects that use a monitor).Step 1 - Download Raspbianįor this guide, we’re gonna be using the standard Raspbian witch is quite easy to setup headlessly. Otherwise, just use a Linux compatible wi-fi adapter that doesn’t require any configuration (aka Plug and Play). Make sure you are using a Raspberry Pi with wi-fi built-in (Raspberry Pi 3 model B, B+, or A+, or Zero W). It is possible to quickly and easily setup a Raspberry Pi project just using a Raspberry Pi and a wi-fi network.
Or just don’t want to go through the hassle of setting it all up? Have you ever needed to setup a Raspberry Pi but you hadn’t a monitor or a mouse or keyboard available?
