Yes did that as well. I think I'm going to reflash the sd card. because something got broken when the hashrate was at 0. Maybe I'll even reformat the USB.
ok - I apologize if I was providing steps that you already took - just trying to remember all the hangups I had to getting mine started. I would start with the SD card before going thru the USB reformat.
let me know how it goes! I hope you get back up and running soon!
No worries!
Flashing the card did not fix it so I deleted the Litecoin folder in the USB and transfered a new blockchain and now the node is up and syncing.
I guess the blockchain got corrupted somehow, but really odd because I didn't touch anything it just happened.
If your doing hard resets with the node running the USB drive can easily get corrupted. You have to shutdown through the menu and wait until the Apollo is fully shutdown (Red or Blank LED).
Initial time you fire up the node I recommend everyone just boot the Apollo and leave it be overnight...your going to see lots of timeouts/errors on the dashboard and that does not necessarily mean something is wrong. You have to remember we squeezed full node functionally on a device that has the horsepower of a smartphone from a few years ago. The dashboard won't be able to keep up 100% of the time especially during initial load.
I always shut down the miner/node via the dashboard (even before the node update). The miner's hashrate went to 0 (not offline) and the node was offline without me touching anything, it just happened like that. And it was the blockchain that was the problem in the end. I don't know what happened.
