Today I wanted to setup my various raspberry pi machines to notify me of their network detail on boot. I have recently purchased a very small 10" 1080p monitor that I can connect to each of the nodes to view boot information. The motive for this was to see network details after DHCP had completed, and view network information on the boot screen without a login. This would allow me to view details at a glance, and access machines with information directly from the boot screen.
