CRun 'sudo systemctl enable ssh' on another computer
DCreate an empty file named 'ssh' in the boot partition of the microSD card
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Understand SSH enabling method on Raspberry Pi OS

    Creating an empty file named 'ssh' in the boot partition enables SSH on first boot.

  2. Step 2: Evaluate other options

    Adding 'enable_ssh=1' to config.txt or renaming cmdline.txt are incorrect; running systemctl on another computer has no effect.

    Create an empty file named 'ssh' in the boot partition of the microSD card -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Enable SSH by adding empty 'ssh' file [OK]
Quick Trick: Add empty 'ssh' file to boot partition to enable SSH [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Editing config.txt wrongly
  • Trying to enable SSH from another PC
