2023-11-07: mmcblk1p1 - wireless connection. Using
nmcli d wifi connect <SSID> password <password> I can connect to my wireless network. afterwards,
nmcli c shows that wifi wlan0 is connected, and ip a shows that I have an ip address.
2023-11-07: mmcblk1p1 - first bootup. The machine autologins as the orangepi user, which has sudo rights.
nmcli cshow that the wired and lo interfaces are enabled, but obviously I don't have a connection for the ethernet.
nmcli r wifisays that the wifi radio is enabled.
nmcli d status shows that wlan0 is disconnected, and p2p-dev-wlan0 is disconnected, and end0 (ethernet) is unavailable.
nmcli d wifi lists available networks
