However, there are many cases where you might want to deploy a\nheadless box, such as on a Raspberry Pi connected via ethernet (or wifi).\n\nThere are instructions out there for how to install [Alpine Linux on a\nRaspberry Pi](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi), including how to\ndeploy on a [headless Raspberry\nPi](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi_-_Headless_Installation),\nbut I found them to be somewhat out of date and inconsistent. \n\nThis repo packages the overaly file in a repo for version control. The full instructions\nare in the [Alpine Wiki\ninstructions](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi_-_Headless_Installation).\n\n## Credits\n\nThanks for the original instructions from the [Alpine Wiki user\nsodface](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/w/index.php?title=Raspberry_Pi_-_Headless_Installation\u0026action=history),\nwho also hosted the overlay files on their website\n([download](http://www.sodface.com/repo/headless.apkovl.tar.gz)). I expanded\nand updated these instructions and then added them to GitHub so they can be\neasily accessed.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdavidmytton%2Falpine-linux-headless-raspberrypi","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdavidmytton%2Falpine-linux-headless-raspberrypi","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdavidmytton%2Falpine-linux-headless-raspberrypi/lists"}
