What are we even doing here? Frank want's to setup a Raspberry Pi Zero W "Headless" - that means no keyboard, monitor or mouse. In this video we show you how its done... and have some fun with the crowd. At the start of this vid, I had no idea what we were doing, but we pulled it off in the end and as an added bonus, got VNC working too!
Step 1: Download OS
Step 2: Flash SD Card
Step 3: Create a file on the "boot" partition named "ssh" with no contents, just an empty file. This is your flag to turn on SSH on first boot.
Step 4: Create another file on the "boot" partition named "wpa_supplicant.conf" with the following contents: (Replace SSID and PASSWORD). This get's WiFi working.
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
country=US
network={
ssid="YOUR_SSID"
psk="PASSWORD"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
