Connecting Raspbian to your wifi and enabling SSH and VNC without a keyboard

In order to connect your Raspian to your wireless network and enable SSH access to it, follow the steps:

Execute the command mount and copy the full path of where the Raspian rootfs is being mounted. In my case /run/media/whoami/rootfs.
Paste the full path in front of rootfs_path in the text box.
Type your network name and password.

Boot your Raspiberry Pi and give it a time to connect to your wireless. From a computer that is also connected to the same wifi network, do:


ssh pi@raspberrypi.local

After enabling the VNC Server using the raspi-config wizard, if you still can't connect to it, run the following commands on Raspian console:


vnc_config="/root/.vnc/config.d/vncserver-x11"

echo Authentication=VncAuth       >> $vnc_config
echo Encryption=AlwaysOff         >> $vnc_config
echo Password=494015f9a35e8b22	  >> $vnc_config

The password is 123456

Good Luck!
