You don’t. You just enable ssh and connect it to network. Essentially ‘touch /boot/ssh’

  But you can’t do that from a raspbian image, and if you want me to mod my file system post install that only works assuming I can mount it (eg I have another Linux box with keyboard). I’ve had this problem multiple times and find this approach really nice (and wish it shipped with raspbian!)

    /boot is a fat partition. You can mount that from most OSs. Edit: forgive me, I see that's not what you meant at all. Or maybe it was? Either way, the point is valid.

    But where was the SD card flashed? I think the idea is to enable ssh right after flashing the image.

      Say on a Mac or windows box.

        But /boot is a FAT32 partition, it's mountable on practiacally any os I'm aware of. On a mac it'll be under /Volumes/boot.

          Unless I’m mistaken, /boot isn’t where any kind of network / ssh config would live.

            Ssh can be enabled and wifi configured in /boot.

              Yes. Touch (create) an empty file called "ssh" in /boot, and wifi details in wpa_supplicant.conf as mentioned elsewhere in the thread. Very handy!

                Yes, I know. I was just telling GP that they are mistaken. :)
