   Yeah it's a pain. Although easy on Linux, shouldn't be too hard on a Mac (Fuse drivers are available). Although if I didn't have one of them I would just use another a Pi 2 with Ethernet.

   It sure will. It's a bit easier though as you can just use the ethernet port as that's already configured to use DHCP. So you can skip the step that envolves changing the files on the SD card.
