Mac to Raspberry Pi Over Ethernet Cable

Here are some really quick notes on how to connect a Raspberry PI via a ethernet cable to a Mac in order to run the PI in head-less mode over SSH from the Mac:

  1. Get the Raspberry Pi running connected to PC and monitor
  2. Plug the ethernet cable between the Pi and the Mac
  3. Set up internet sharing on Mac for the ethernet interface
  4. To find the IP of the Pi: grep OFFER /var/log/system.log
  5. ssh pi@[the IP address from the grep]
