Headless Raspberry Pi Setup

Don’t have an extra keyboard or HDMI cable? Here’s how to do a headless Raspbian install on your Pi.


To use headless wireless, edit wpa_supplicant.conf in the boot partition (direct from Windows):

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1

network={
  ssid="YOUR SSID HERE"
  psk="YOUR PASSWORD HERE"
}
