Hello,

 

So is anyone aware of a way (like a text file)to populate with values etc to bypass the need to be interactive during first boot? Since this device is displayless and I hate to pop the case every time to hookup the console cable when setting up a half dozen devices. 

 

I imagine I could alter the first boot script, but was just wondering if there was another way.

 

Thanks!

Richard

LOL I guess I should have dove into the file system. Found the /boot/armbian_first_run.txt.template  thats a start.

 

Teach me to be lazy for a change.

Ok so the first run template above works if you need to do wifi etc. In my case the easy fix was to find the default images root password. So on a fresh image, I boot the device, watch it get an IP via DHCP and then login using the default root password and it lets me enter the information in the first launch script.
