You don’t. You just enable ssh and connect it to network. Essentially ‘touch /boot/ssh’

But you can’t do that from a raspbian image, and if you want me to mod my file system post install that only works assuming I can mount it (eg I have another Linux box with keyboard).

I’ve had this problem multiple times and find this approach really nice (and wish it shipped with raspbian!)

But where was the SD card flashed? I think the idea is to enable ssh right after flashing the image.

Say on a Mac or windows box.

But /boot is a FAT32 partition, it's mountable on practiacally any os I'm aware of. On a mac it'll be under /Volumes/boot.

[azinman2]

Unless I’m mistaken, /boot isn’t where any kind of network / ssh config would live.

Ssh can be enabled and wifi configured in /boot.

/boot is a fat partition. You can mount that from most OSs.

Edit: forgive me, I see that's not what you meant at all. Or maybe it was? Either way, the point is valid.
