→What is headless mode?
Headless mode is a system configuration which enables access to a raspberry pi, through ssh on a network, without the use of a monitor or keyboard plugged into the raspberry pi. This mode does require another computer to ssh into the raspberry pi. When this feature is enabled, [[Pidora 18 Firstboot|firstboot]] is bypassed and disabled.
Additionally, Headless Mode will enable services to read your IP Address through plugged in speakers or headphones. It will also flash the IP Address to you on the Raspberry Pi LEDs.
Flash IP Example:
1-9 flashes = 1-9 digit in IP Address
10 flashes = 0 digit in IP Address
short delay = next digit in ip
long delay = . in IP Address
{{Admon/important| Security Warning! | If you are going to use headless mode it is critical that you change the root password as soon as possible, because Pidora is set with a default root password that is publicized.}}
