Armbian Xenial - going headless


Android3000

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'd like to keep the features provided in AX but have my OPi Lite starting and running some software that communicates with a webserver periodically over the internet without the monitor, keyboard and mouse connected unless performing maintenance where remote access isn't appropriate.  Is this possible or am I looking at an Armbian Bionic (unsupported)  installation?

Sure why not.

 

Bionic provides the same experience with possible problems since it's a new assembly.

There is no special procedure. But why you don't rather install some RDP/VNC and connect to the boards desktop remotely ... when you need that.

I intend to do that but I just want the OPi Lite powered with WiFi connectivity and no other peripherals connected.  I presume, like I would in Windows, that I'll get a  keyboard error without a keyboard connected on start-up?

Nope, don't worry.
