Hey guys, I would like to install Debian on my raspberry pi 4 model B 2gb, but I dont have a micro HDMI. I would like to install it headless. I watched a video where the guy created some files in the boot partition on the SD card to enable SSH, and I was wondering if I can do something similar with a Debian SD so I dont need to go out and buy a cable.
I couldn’t find too many tutorials for Debian on the pi, and none to install it headless.
Thanks in advance!
Edit 1: I ended up going with raspbian lite because of some other issues that came up.
If you’re planning on using plain Debian and the challenges that come with it, you probably should start with one of the pre-built images from the Debian foundation. You can mount the root partition with either a running linux box or WSL2. Then you can chroot into it to setup the wpa_supplicant.conf in the /etc/ folder and ensble sshd.
Thats something like what I’ll be trying. I am on a linux laptop so I can do all that.
