This works (not a surprise!). I found that I could not set the WiFi country in raspi-config (to US, in my case) because the option was greyed out until after I had given the nmcli command. This may be because I had previously tried to set the other WiFi parameters, provoking an error, as described in my initial post.Many thanks. This has helped flag up a number of issues with the image. Working on getting another one out ASAP.
You can run `nmcli radio wifi on` to work around the issue for now.
I hope that it goes without saying that defaulting WiFi to "Off" in new system images, with no way of turning it on without either connecting a keyboard and monitor or connecting an ethernet cable is a disastrous idea!
