Raspberry pi zero 2w, Kali Linux. (not connecting to WiFi)
March 6, 2024, 18:12
Good day, folks!
Quite new to the raspberry community, so as expected - I got some problems with set-up-ing my pi0 2w.
1) I ran Raspberry Pi OS on it, and it worked perfectly. (was able to ssh to it via puty)
2) Then, I tried to install kali on it :
- It booted.
- However, did not appear on my wireless-clients' list.
3) Decided, to add a blank ssh file to the BOOT:
- It booted.
- and, again, it did not appear on my clients' list.
In advance, Thanks for any help or advice given from you.
do you have a display?
no, it is a headless setup.
even with headless you can still use a display to see the terminal
headless just means no gui
That's interesting, thanks. Will surf some stuff online, but for now do i really need it for resolving my issue?
itd make stuff a lot easier but you might not no
I see, sir. Since it is optional, do you have any ideas what could help me now?
thanks for your time.
did you use the imager to flash it?
I did.
Plus my settings have the ssh enabled, with some information of LAN to connect to.
ok there it gives you an option to enable ssh. did you?
I did.
beat me to it
ok check your network to see if its connected
It is not.
What could cause it?
Since with another OS it worked perfectly fine.
either its just simply struggling to connect to your network or its not booting properly
both of which i severely suggest you to get a display, even just a tv because its only temporary
I see, thanks. Will need to buy some equipment then. Thank you so much, for your advice.
