Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

Well two things, one it's a faux pas to mention things that were said privately publicly, if it was for the world at large to know I would have said them here on this thread. The 'faux pas', as you put it, was actually you thinking that I have something to hide or to keep private. If you had more c...

Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

I would need to have communication with the person in charge if this program were released to your customers. Because too many cooks spoil the broth, and there are too many mods doing what they like when they like.

Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

simplesi, let me know how the new program works out. I wasn't sure if you still needed the wpa-ssid line before the one you provided for me. Just realized that I forgot to change the wording regarding the path. I was also thinking about checking the computers currently connected ssid, and letting th...

Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

I'm getting a bit confused here (nothing new) :) Your prog does something to the img file not to a bootable SD card paritioned up. But once the SD card image is created - then it would require a compeletly separate process to get at /etc/network/interface surely :) If your prog can change data on e...

Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

But not once the image has been booted I'm assuming Simon As long as you don't physically go into the /etc/network/interfaces file and change it, or have a native Linux program change it (I don't know what the GUI network manager might change), it should be re-writable. I will also test it tonight ...

Couldn't find anybody with XP still, so that might be the problem. I will see if I can find a version of XP to i...

Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

Hoping for a bug-less first version was wishful thinking.

This program has only been tested on Windows 7 and Vista. What version of windows are you using?

Are you running this program on a fresh Raspbian image (one that's never been run before)?

Can you verify that your SD card in not corrupt?

Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

A GUI program is what I'd like :) I first built it in Visual Basic (my knowledge of programming GUIs is pretty limited). I had a successful one done and timed it while it ran. It took about 2 hours (I kid you not), to examine the entire Raspbian disk image. I then created it in C, and ran it. With ...

Re: A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

:) How do you use it then? Is the source available? What language did you use? Simon The source is currently not available. The language doesn't really matter, what matters is that this works on Windows OSs (.exe). Download the program, put it in the folder with the disk image (if you don't want to...

A Completely Headless Raspbian Install Over Wifi!

Download the latest Wheezy Raspbian image, inject your wifi's SSID and password with the Raspbian-Wifi-Injector-v0.7, burn it to a SD card and never connect anything more than a wifi dongle and power supply to your Raspberry Pi. You may download the completely portable program here: [link to abusive...

I'm guessing from your comment that I shouldn't get any. Wish I'd known that before putting money towards a Raspberry Pi.

Re: Can't search on site for help!

I guess I'll have to do that. But why they have a search that is almost completely useless, and no note saying how sucky it is or listing an alternative way to do it, doesn't make sense. At the very least, the search should inject [site:raspberrypi.org] on to the users search and just send that stri...

Can't search on site for help!

I'm trying to make the $35 I put on a Raspberry Pi Model B not be a waste of money, but I can't set up my wireless. Even worse, I tried to do a search for 'wifi help' and it tells me "The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: wifi help. You must specify...

Re: Introduce yourself!

Hi,

Got my pi about a week ago, and still can't figure out setting up wireless.

So far... the worst $35 I've ever spent.
