For WIFI to work immediately, add boot/wpa_supplicant.conf with the following content:
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid="<YOUR NETWORK NAME>"
scan_ssid=1
psk="<PASSWORD>"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
For ssh to work on first boot, touch ssh (create empty file named ssh on boot partition).
The file will be removed, so you would have to add it next time again.
This is where I learned the ssh and WiFi setup information.
To enable it permanently:
$ sudo systemctl enable ssh
$ sudo systemctl start ssh
Login via ssh pi@the-ip-address. Standard password is raspberry. Change it with passwd pi.
$sudo apt update
$sudo apt upgrade
# prevent problems with cursor keys over ssh by using vim instead of vi
$ sudo apt install vim
# fix security downgrade of wpa_supplicant, introduced by apt upgrade:
$ vim /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
# Add inside each network block (without leading #):
# phase1="tls_disable_tlsv1_0=1 tls_disable_tlsv1_1=1"
# openssl_ciphers="DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=2"
#
# Fix Timezone (e.g. for Europe/Berlin)
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
# choose your timezone and submit
Just to be clear about the changes to wpa_supplicant.conf, because you won't be able to log in via ssh again,
if you have an error here.
This is how it should look like:
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid="<YOUR NETWORK NAME>"
scan_ssid=1
psk="<PASSWORD>"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
phase1="tls_disable_tlsv1_0=1 tls_disable_tlsv1_1=1"
openssl_ciphers="DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=1"
}
If you can't login again, just turn your device off and plug the SD card into your PC. You can edit and inspect files this way as well.
