Optional: Enable SSH HyperBian SSH

# HyperBian WiFi

In case you want to use WiFi with your Raspberry Pi, you can include the Wifi SSID and password after you burned the HyperBian-XXXX.img to your SD card for auto configuration on first boot. Open the SD card with a file explorer. It's called "boot".

Create a new text file

Create a new textfile
Rename it to "wpa_supplicant.conf"

Rename to wpa_supplicant.conf
Add your WiFi credentials.
Replace YOUR_SSID and YOUR_PASSWORD with your values.

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
country=GB
  network={
    ssid="YOUR_SSID"
    psk="YOUR_PASSWORD"
    key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
  }

Note:

You need to replace 'GB' with the ISO code of your country. See Wikipedia for a list of country codes.

Save it! You are done, the WiFi will be configured during next boot

# HyperBian SSH

You should never need it for daily usage, but for completion: To enable SSH access, plugin your sd card with HyperBian already installed into your computer, and open the "boot" partition with a file explorer. Create a empty file named ssh in the root directory (without file extension). SSH will be enabled now on next boot.

TIP

HyperBian is shipped with an English keyboard configured. If you do not own an English keyboard some keys might be found at a different place. For the first time login, type as you would have an English keyboard; after logging in successfully you can update to your keyboard layout via sudo raspi-config.
