====How do I find my IP Address? ====
 
Once Headless Mode has been Enabled, and the Raspberry Pi has finished booting, the IP Address of the Raspberry Pi will be read out through the speakers or headphones that are connected to the Raspberry Pi. Additionally, the IP Address will be flashed through the LED on the Raspberry Pi soon after the IP Address is read through the speakers.
 
1 - 9 short flashes indicate the digits 1 - 9
10 short flashes indicate the digit 0
a long flash indicates an octet separator (dot)
a brief pause separates digits

== Static Configuration ==
= Sample Headless Mode Configurations =
Below are sample configurations, they may require you to enter valid ip information specific to the network you are running it on. ====Static Configuration(without rootfs resizing or swap creation):====
IPADDR=192.168.1.105
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
====Static Configuration(with rootfs resizing and swap creation):====
IPADDR=192.168.1.105
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
SWAP=512
====Dynamic Configuration(with rootfs resizing and swap creation):====

= Known Bugs and Features =
====Two IP Addresses====
When switching in between Headless Mode Configuration states, static ip to dynamic ip, or dynamic ip to static ip, '''both''' IP Addresses, from '''each''' configuration will be active for the single boot, until a reboot takes place.
====Graphical Mode Not Disabled====
Headless Mode does not disable X, and can run in both Run Level 3 or 5. This means that if you are not planning on using X while in Headless Mode, you should switch to Run Level 3 to save memory.

====Slower Boot====
When running headless mode, the speed of the boot is slowed down, this is due to a network change during boot.
