Download nmap (nmap.org/dist/nmap-6.40-setup.exe) and do a ping scan on 192.168.1.* to see if the RPi is even on the address you are trying to ssh into (192.168.1.249). Either that or check in your router to see exactly what IP it assigned to it. It may not be the static IP you mentioned. Mine auto assigned a different IP to the RPi.

says there is an unknown OS on the ip 192.168.1.249, and my gateway is 192.168.1.1

the RPi seems to refuse SSH connection, rather than simply not being found

   Did you try to use IE with 192.168.1.249

chrome and IE both fail to connect to it (but fail faster [1-2sec] than if i entered some unused ip that takes 5-10 seconds to fail the ping attempt)

   Did you check anything used same ip address in you router.

ps: happened to me my playbook also used 192.168.1.249

changed the cmdline.txt file to be ip=192.168.1.240  and tried again. same result. Chrome quickly finds the device at that ip address, but returns "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to 192.168.1.240". SSH attempts are faced with "connection refused"

what am i doing wrong? Ive wasted hours of downtime, driven myself insane, and am going to bed knowing that I won't be able to do anything until tomorrow evening at the earliest (24hrs from first plugging in my unit!) Does Punin have a different SD image i can try, maybe buzzdave's upload is no good?

   Why didnt you change ip in /etc/network/interfaces?


where do i find that folder? Im on a windows system so i can only see the FAT partition of my SD card, and have no ability to directly use the rPi as a workstation without a monitor/usb keyboard

edit: got a program to read file sin the linux partition, and i see:

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.10.11.249
netmask 255.0.0.0
gateway 10.1.1.1

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp

however, i cannot edit it, only save it to windows with this program Angry

edit2: guess ive gotta go the long way around, get ubuntu on vmware and try fixing it that way...
