Ran it, here is the result  Sad

error: Could not locate RPC credentials. No authentication cookie could be found, and RPC password is not set.  See -rpcpassword and -stdinrpcpass.  Configuration file: (/root/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf)

You could create such an authentication cookie.

By adding a line such as this, to the configuration file, next time you reboot your Apollo, it will attempt to create that file.
Code:
cookie_file = "/home/futurebit/.bitcoin/.cookie"

Other programs like bitcoin-cli can then find and access it, to be granted RPC access to bitcoind.
I think it would be best if I got my hands on a Futurebit OS install myself, to get it running and make a mini-guide; unfortunately I don't have my hands on the hardware as of right now.
