1. Internet connection

1. One or more PiBoxes that you don't want to manage through [KubeSail](https://kubesail.com)
|

- I recommend [installing the latest version](https://docs.kubesail.com/guides/pibox/rpiboot/) before proceeding

- _Note: There is a bug where the ssh server won't start. Fix outlined below._

1. Ping your hosts: `ansible -i ansible/inventories/inventory.yml all -m ping`

- If you can't resolve any hosts, check DNS. It's always DNS.

## Fixing no SSH on latest version
|
||||
|
||||
During install of the custom image, `pi flasher` allowed me to configure things like the hostname, ssid, my ssh key, my user account. This sets up a script that runs when the pi reboots for the first time after install.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Mount the pi's `/boot` volume (it should be in your file manager somewhere)
|
||||
1. Edit the `initial-boot.sh` (or similar named script)
|
||||
1. Add `ssh-keygen -A` somewhere in the file
|
||||
1. Save and close the file
|
||||
1. Safely unmount the pi's `/boot`
|
||||
1. Done! The ssh server is now functional
|
||||
|
||||
_Alternatively, you can wait for the system to boot with a keyboard and monitor connected and:_
|
||||
|
||||
- _login;_
|
||||
- _open a terminal;_
|
||||
- _run `sudo ssh-keygen -A`;_
|
||||
- _then `sudo systemctl enable --now ssh`._
