3 years ago Gregor von Laszewski @Adam Ratzman lets use slack to work on headless update workflow. this can actually also be used as replacement for what @Richard Otten has done with imager a) create and activate ENV3 b) install clloudmehs-installer c) cloudmesh-installer get pi d) burn master cms burn cluster --hostname=masterpi --ssid=SSID -y e) insert mastr, boot f) login master, repeat process on master than use inventory to burn see https://github.com/cloudmesh/pi/blob/main/content/en/tutorial/sdcard-burn-pi-headless/index.md we will use for the hackaday tutorial what we have now, That is not a headless setup. The headless setup is a new tutorial. @Adam Ratzman and @Rama Asuri are responsible for it, A channel #headless can be used for discussion on it. There are two different ways that can do headless setups (cluster and inventory). I like you to use inventory … you could modify it so that keys are generated on your computer and placed on each workere and the master. This way you add 2 keys to each worker, one for the laptop, one for the master. You could add a flag such as --key-generatior to control this behaviour (this allows the use of inventory as is and the use of inventory as you do). I am sure that @Richard Otten and @Adam Ratzman can help. The development should be doen in the a new branch called headless. I will create that so it does not interfere with the planed announcement and release (edited) 9:40 PM please provide instructions on what works for you 11:37 PM Rama Asuri @Gregor von Laszewski my monitor won’t work, I don’t have micro HDMI to HDMI. 11:37 PM I will do the headless Added to your saved items 3:59 AM Gregor von Laszewski I created a #headless for @Adam Ratzman and @Rama Asuri so you can communicate about https://github.com/cloudmesh/pi/blob/main/content/en/tutorial/sdcard-burn-pi-headless/index.md As you do not have write permissions there you could make a copy initially in cloudmesh-pi-burn/experimental and once done I can copy it over. As we have everything to do a headless setup (I think), this should be easy. see my comments in that existing file. Thus instead of imager to burn master on your laptop simply use cms burn. (edited)
there is a very good documentation to this in the new raspberry pi documentation.
https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/configuration.html#setting-up-a-headless-raspberry-pi
there is another way of doing this by now with the ctrl shift X document
document both solutions 1 and 2
on laptop
on pi manager
