B+ refuses to take "raspberry" password

[dan158]

My new Raspberry PI B+ is refusing to take the "raspberry" password.

This is it's first boot up. I don't have an HDMI cable laying around so I tried to SSH to it.
RPi's address is 192.168.1.2 (however, when I tried 192.168.1.3 it made the green light at the Ethernet connection blink). This is after I've, once again, deleted my 'list of known hosts' from my Linux (Deb-Jessie) system to try and SSH into RPi again;

xxxx@xxxxx:~/Desktop$ ssh pi@192.168.1.1
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.1 port 22: Connection refused
xxxx@xxxxx:~/Desktop$ ssh pi@192.168.1.3
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.3 port 22: No route to host

xxxx@xxxxx:~/Desktop$ ssh pi@192.168.1.2
The authenticity of host '192.168.1.2 (192.168.1.2)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is 9c:e6:12:98:22:1f:dc:9e:63:e0:e6:2b:ec:55:f5:18.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added '192.168.1.2' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.
pi@192.168.1.2's password:
Permission denied, please try again.

I'm sure I'm missing something, wracking my few remaining gray cells to figure it out and getting nowhere.

Firstly list open ssh ips on your network:

nmap -p 22 192.168.1.0/24

Secondly what OS did you put on there?

Thank you for your responce
I haven't gotten to the stage of installing an OS. this was its very first boot.

nmap readout, (I haven't unplugged the Rpi yet).

Code: Select all

:~$ nmap -p 22 192.168.1.0/24

Starting Nmap 6.47 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2014-10-10 13:33 MDT

What do you have on your SDCard?

If you're trying to install NOOBS without a keyboard/screen you'll need to do a "silentinstall".

SSH only works in an OS, and that's what you boot.
NOOBS is an OS of sorts but I would just skip it and to to raspbian.

NOOBS is an Installer, not a fully fledged OS, although it might us a linux kernel, but that does NOT make it an OS.

Thank you for the link DougieLawson. That looks promising. I'll try it and get back to you all.
I was sure I was missing something and that looks like it.

Technically it is an "embedded Linux operating system".

It may be restrictive but it runs at least user 2 apps on some hardware, and really that's the only requirement for an OS.
