Previous versions of Raspberry Pi OS made use of a wpa_supplicant.conf file which could be placed into the boot folder to configure wireless network settings. This is no longer possible from Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm onwards.I have a headless pi I want to pre-configure to have wireless networking. I can't ssh in until the wifi works. I can shut it down, pull the SD card, mount it somewhere else and place files in /etc/.
What file in what directory for wifi? I'm using the
2023-12-11-raspios-bookworm-armhf-lite image. The device has a screen and keyboard, but the image lacks the drivers for the screen and I need to apt-get install them. Which is tricky when I can't ssh in or trying to type blindly the needed commands to add a repo with the video drivers.
The pre-configured OS for this device is buildroot which has no compiler or build tools which is going to block me intalling the Perl modules I need. buildroot.org helpfuly says (paraphrased) "if you want a compiler, you want a different distro."
