Hi David,
I should have clarified that I am running the Pi headless, so I have an older Panasonic Toughbook laptop running Ubuntu hardwired via Ethernet to use as a keyboard/screen interface with the Rpi, on which I am just installing Hampi as the OS. I normally run SSH to get onto the Rpi, then enable VNC server to operate Hampi from the Toughbook.?
The HP laptop from which I flashed the original SD card is a separate Windows machine, but it worked fine that time, so I assume it has a good reader.?
Upon re-examining the second SD card on the Toughbook (Ubuntu) card reader I do indeed see the files you have listed above under the /boot directory. The files all seem to be there, including the SSH file. However, the Rpi still fails to connect via SSH.
The version of Hampi I was using was 1.0, and it appears that in subsequent releases SSH is already enabled. I think I will try flashing 2.0 and starting over. I am starting to suspect I just messed up the first card somehow. I do now see the readme instructions for creating a backup, so hopefully I won't repeat whatever mistake I may have made the first time around.?
Thanks again for you help.
73's?
