 [Alpine Linux documentation](https://docs.alpinelinux.org/user-handbook/0.1a/Installing/setup_alpine.html) assumes **initial setup** is carried-out on a system with a keyboard & display to interract with.\
 However, there are many cases where one might want to deploy a headless system, only available through a network connection (ethernet, wifi or as USB ethernet gadget).
 
-This repo provides an **overlay file** to initially boot such headless system (leveraging Alpine distro's `initramfs` feature): it enables a basic ssh server to log-into from another Computer, in order to finalize system setup.

 ## Install procedure:
 Please follow [Alpine Linux Wiki](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Installation#Installation_Overview) to download & create installation media for the target platform.\
 Tools provided here can be used on any plaform for any install modes (diskless, data disk, system disk).
 
-Just add [**headless.apkovl.tar.gz**](https://github.com/macmpi/alpine-linux-headless-bootstrap/raw/main/headless.apkovl.tar.gz)[^1] overlay file at the root of Alpine Linux boot media (or onto any custom side-media) and boot the system.
-
-With default network interface definitions (and SSID/pass file if using wifi), one may then access the system under `ssh` with: `ssh root@<IP>`\

+`ssh root@<IP>`\
 (system IP address may be determined with any IP scanning tools such as `nmap`).
 
-As with Alpine Linux initial bring-up, `root` account has no password initially (change that after setup!).\
-From there, system install can be fine-tuned as usual with `setup-alpine` for instance (check [wiki](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Alpine_setup_scripts#setup-alpine) for details).

-Add-on files may be added next to `headless.apkovl.tar.gz` to customise setup (sample files are provided):
-- `wpa_supplicant.conf` (*mandatory for wifi usecase*): define wifi SSID & password.
-- `interfaces` (*optional*): define network interfaces at will, if defaults DCHP-based are not suitable.
-- `ssh_host_*_key*` (*optional*): provide custom ssh keys to be injected (can be stored), instead of bundled ones[^1] (not stored).
-- `unattended.sh` (*optional*): make custom automated deployment script to further tune & extend setup (backgrounded).

-**Goody:** seamless USB bootstrapping for PiZero devices (or similar which can support USB ethernet gadget networking):\
-Just add `dtoverlay=dwc2` in `usercfg.txt` (or `config.txt`), and plug-in USB to Computer port.\
-With Computer set-up to share networking with USB interface as 10.42.0.1 gateway, one can log into device from Computer with `ssh root@10.42.0.2` !...

 [^1]: About bundled ssh keys: as this package is essentially intended to **quickly bootstrap** system in order to configure it, it purposely embeds [some ssh keys](https://github.com/macmpi/alpine-linux-headless-bootstrap/tree/main/overlay/etc/ssh) so that bootstrapping is as fast as possible. Those (temporary) keys are moved in RAM /tmp, so they will **not be saved/reused** once permanent configuration is set (with or without ssh server voluntarily installed in permanent setup).
