Yes this ruins just about every Pi from scratch tutorial. The worst part is if this affects the "lite" distro which is headless. The beauty of using an image like Raspbian Lite was being able to flash, ssh (ip via DHCP), change password/hostname and done.

- Declanomous 10y agoIf you can flash an sd card you can turn on SSH with the new method. All my Pi's are headless, and this is a mild inconvenience at best. Way less inconvenient than the internet falling apart because users don't know anything about security.
- alexellisuk 10y agoNew method is what? I sometimes mount the Linux partition if I'm flashing from a Linux PC to edit hostname etc but this is extra hassle especially if using a Mac.
- Declanomous 10y agoYou add a file named ssh to the boot directory. This permanently enables SSH. The boot partition is fat formatted and can be edited on basically any device as a result. It's right in the linked article.
