I have a Pi Zero W which I want to use for the MagicMirror.
Because of some hardware limits I have to install "Jessie" to make it work.
No problem there. The problem is that I need to add the WiFi and SSH details to the SD-card before booting. I'm running a headless system and can't be bothered with a keyboard/mouse.
So after some Googling I found that adding a text file wpa_supplicant.conf
with the following contents to the SD-card root it will copy it to the location it needs to be and WiFi will work.
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid=“SSID HERE“
psk=“PASS HERE”
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
The Pi Zero W running Jessie
doesn't.... The Pi 4 running Raspberry Pi OS
does....
So I thought maybe Jessie
is to old and the functionality isn't added yet...
Well no.
Jessie
is from 2017 and the function is added in 2016..
So.. can anybody help me out here?
sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
