General Discussion

Yes.

In short:

  • Flash your SD card
  • Open up the “boot” partition and edit “config.txt”, adding “dtoverlay=dwc2” to the bottom
  • Open up “cmdline.txt” and add “modules-load=dwc2,g_ether” after “rootwait”

Hint:

  • Per default where is no Bonjour running on DietPi or Windows host
  • You will need a fix ip adress on DietPi usb0 interface
  • You will need a USB Ethernet / RNDIS Gadget driver for Windows and Mac hosts
  • You will need a Internet Sharing on your Windows/Mac host

2.) Advanced Networking (Fixed IP)
nano /etc/network/interfaces and add:

## USB0 Ethernet
allow-hotplug usb0
iface usb0 inet static
        address 192.168.7.2
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.7.0
        broadcast 192.168.7.255
        gateway 192.168.7.1 ## ONLY if you have internet connection via usb0
