I am thinking about how to go about installing Fedora on a headless server without use of a console connection.
- some in arm-image-installer to provide root password instead of just
norootpassword. And then NOT to even stop the install at this initial setup phase.
Patches are welcome.
- some way (other than tools like fping) to find the IP address of the
server.
Well mDNS is suited to this
- Server management on port 9090 does all that would normally be done
in initial setup (I am kind of assuming it already does).
I tend not to assume anything TBH, the fact is I don't believe a device running on an open port able to set root passwords/create users like initial-setup does locally is actually secure. How would you deal with that problem.
What else would be needed for a real headless install? Or maybe it is already there and I just missed the link...
