I am assuming the zip is to be unpacked before this. > sudo dd if=2016-09-23-raspbian-jessie-lite.img of=/dev/sdg bs=4096 I think it went south, I can't read it. How do I initialize (format) the card for this use? Or, restore it to pristine so I can try the dd again? > sudo sync (not really necessary) Did that too, still cannot read it. I got the device name after plugging in the adapter carrying the 32Gb u-sd card, as /dev/sdf1.

So I pulled out the r-pi, stuck the mini heat sinks on it, and plugged in the wall wart. Lots of green led flashing which I assume is sd access. That stopped eventually. My router has a dhcpd running just so I can plug in the lappy occasionally. So since it may not have tried as no cable was plugged in, I did a powerdown reset for about 10 seconds. After a reboot, the nmap scan finds only the local machines, and I just remembered maybe why its dhcp requests are not serviced, success is tied to the lappy's mac address. A tcpdump session shows its trying so thats promising. I've not putzed with the router in a year or more, its dd-wrt on a good buffalo. Except on looking, that was the setup on a previous netgear with dd-wrt installed, there is no such mac address matching going on in this buffalo/dd-wrt. I did see the first dhcp address it would have doled out, last nibble=101 decimal. Apparently the pi didn't like it. or it didn't like the previous .71, my local network is not in the 192.168.1.0 or 0.0 block. And the pi has given up, all I am seeing now is fetchmail traffic. So it looks as if I need to get a monitor, keyboard and mouse on it before I can go any further. But just for S&G, ping that, nope, nothing at any of the 5 addresses dhcpd would have handed out. > > #You do not need a hdmi for the first steps if you have a dhcp-server > in your net. #we are klingon tinkerer. ;) > > #after the raspi has booted (blinking net leds) you can optain the ip > with > > #sudo nmap -sn (your subnet) > #ie: > > sudo nmap -sn 192.168.71.0/24 http://192.168.71.0/24 Nmap scan report for raspberrypi.coyote.den (192.168.71.100) Host is up (0.00038s latency).
