Hi,
I’m having trouble setting up my Pi Zero W for a headless connection. In the Raspberry Pi Imager I set a password (letters only, tried different ones), but after flashing, SSH always rejects it as incorrect. When I check the settings of the flashed image, the password shown is completely different from what I entered.
I’ve tried using another laptop, installing an older version of the Imager, and reformatting the SD card, but the issue persists. Unfortunately, I only have this one card available.
Has anyone encountered this and found a solution?
