Connect to serial and avoid ssh

device
1

Hi guys,

I would like to know if it’s possible to launch my ubuntu core image directly on the board and get to the login screen using the serial console instead of the ssh connection. If yes, let me know the procedure to enable that serial connection and disable the ssh.

Thanks.

you will need to ssh once to set a password …

once your user has a password, the system will spawn a normal login screen on the consoles instead of the one that shows the ssh device keys …

alternatively you can pre-create a system user assertion with a password to import from i.e. a USB key, note that this needs to use your brand ID used to sign the model assertion when creating the image.
