Won't work as root login to sshd is disabled. You will need to login as a
user and su - to get root.
Just connect an HDMI display and add a usb keyboard. Then boot it and after
it is finished expanding the filesystem top use the whole sd card. Login and
add a user. making sure the added user is also in the wheel group. I also use
a static ipv4 address so when I try to ssh in I will know the ip.
Now you can connect it on your network and ssh in and install ports and build
whatever you need.
One of the first things I build is screen so I can detach and log out ( break
ssh connection ) and it will still build what ever package. If you are not
using screen when you log out of your ssh connection your build will stop.
Building ports can take a long time, some over nite.
