{{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.}} Headless mode is a system configuration in which the display deviceenables access to a raspberry pi, keyboardthrough ssh on a network, without the use of a monitor or mouse is lackingkeyboard 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 bypassedand disabled.
To enable headless modeHeadless Mode, you will need to create a file named "headless" in inside the boot filesystem file system on your the Raspberry Pi's SD card ''. Create this "headless" file before'' you insert the card into boot your Raspberry Pi.
Tutorial Video: http://youtu.be/ALUAmw6Mz_o
Insert the SD card into your system, and create a file named "headless" in the filesystem labelled "boot".
=== DHCP =Optional Configuration ====If "RESIZE" is in the "headless" file, the root filesystem will be expanded to the maximum size of the sd card via the service rootfs-resize. If "SWAP"(requires the value in megabytes) exists in the "headless" file, a swap file will be created of the specified size, and then activated.
=== Static Configuration ==Sample Headless Mode Configurations =
=== Sample headless file =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
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
RESIZE
SWAP=512
====Dynamic Configuration(with rootfs resizing and swap creation)====
RESIZE
SWAP=512
= SSH to The Headless Pi =
Default User: root
Default Password: raspberrypi
ssh root@{ip_address}
= 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.
== Headless ==Graphical Mode is enable with DHCP -- How do I find out my ip-address? 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.
