Pi</a>. It is
running smoothly, but there one thing that gets on your nerves. The pesky
ethernet cable is getting in your way. Well, it's time to get rid of it for
good and setup the wifi. To do that, you need to edit the following two files:
<code>/etc/network/interfaces</code> and <code>/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf</code>.</p>
<h3>Configure the wireless</h3>
<p>Let's start with the network intefaces. Open the first file in text editor:</p>
<div class="code"><pre class="code literal-block">$ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
</pre></div>
<p>Go to the <code>wlan0</code> section, which stands for
you wifi adapter, and edit it so it looks like this:</p>
<div class="code"><pre class="code literal-block">allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp
</pre></div>
<p>In case your <code>/etc/network/interfaces</code> does
not include a <code>wlan0</code> section, just copy the whole thing. When you are done,
press <code>ctrl + x</code> to save the changes.</p>

3</a>, a new
version of their popular developer board. It features a faster ARM processor,
1 GB of RAM and, most importantly, on-board wifi. This makes it even better
choice for a headless Linux server. This guide shows how to do the basic
Raspberry Pi server setup, with password-less SSH and automatic updates.</p>
<h3>Get the Raspbian Lite image</h3>
<p>First of all, you have to download a Linux image for your Raspberry Pi. For
using it as a headless server I recommend the Raspbian Lite, which is a
minimal image shipped without the desktop packages (which are obviously not
needed for a headless server). You can download it
<a href="https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_lite_latest">here</a>. When the
download is complete, open the <code>.zip</code> file and unzip the <code>.img</code> file
containing the image.</p>
