Enabling SSH on a head-less Raspberry Pi

Wednesday, September 25th, 2019

in the usually FAT boot partition create (e.g. touch) a file name “ssh”, and just place your wpa configuration file onto it as well, like:

country=FR
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid=”NETWORK”
psk=”PASSWORD”
}

Some websites suggest a shorter, more minimal file without the country=YOUR-LOCATION, however the last time I checked that will not enable the wireless network interface, maybe intentionally due to regulatory concerns.
