2023-11-07: mmcblk1p1 - users - I changed the default passwords for the orangepi and the root account, then I created my own user and added it to the same groups as the orangepi user.

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

2023-11-07: I created this page.
