    Because this method has worked just fine for years. It’s also how I restore my backups so it’s a familiar process.

    Configuration was never the issue; I have no problem setting it up manually and switching it to being headless when I’m ready for that.

    The display not working is a symptom; the entire device was shutting down, not just refusing to output video unfortunately.

    Turned out to be a faulty sd card. New one is now working just fine.




    1. didn’t look like anything unusual, but I’ll try and grab a photo before it disappears from screen. Waiting on ‘apt upgrade’ rn.

    2. the devices MAC has a fixed DHCP lease. The IP becomes and remains unreachable as soon as I enter ‘sudo reboot’.

    3. this is a previously known to be good card (it had a working OS on it prior to todays messing around), but I’ll try another for good measure.
