I am thinking about how to go about installing Fedora on a headless
server without use of a console connection.
1) 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.
2) some way (other than tools like fping) to find the IP address of
the
server.
Well mDNS is suited to this
3) 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.
