In that file, comment out this line: 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 115200 tty1
Do a “What is /etc/inittab” in Google for a far more robust answer on the specifics of what it does.
But to paraphrase, this is what you need to do:Įdit /etc/inittab, the file that controls the startup \ initialization process of the Pi. The first thing to solve is how to get the RPi to auto-login, thus removing the necessity of a connecetd keyboard & monitor (or ssh) to get things running. This is all completely new territory for me, everything was done via searching the web and trying it out. But once embedded, how do you have it auto-login and execute code of your choosing? Like many others on the web I encountered this issue, and like many others, I’m blogging about how I figured it out. But since the RPi is so small, it’s perfect for embedded systems like the Arduino. Then, it expects the user to “do stuff” on the computer. The Raspberry Pi is its own little Linux computer: When it turns on, by default it expects a user to log-in, via password. Continuing from my previous post of turning my Raspberry Pi and Makey Makey into a ‘internet radio tuner’, the next step is to get the RPi to auto-login and start playing music when booted: I want this to be a standalone piece of hardware that won’t require a monitor and keyboard every time I want to use it.Ĭoming from the embedded microcontroller world of Arduino, I’m used to powering the hardware on, and it running “the code” I’ve programmed for it.
