Hey guys make sure if your connected to the system with the monitor you DO NOT do any system level updates (ie ubuntu asking you to update the kernel etc). Even though we tried to keep the system and 'app" as separate as possible the full node system is still really an embedded system with lots of system level tweaks to make it work. If you update the system lots of these will be will be wiped and youll be left with a bricked system until you reflash the SD card.

Well be issuing updates on the web UI remotely (there will be a yellow update button in the dashboard) you can install whenever they are available, but for system updates please wait until we issue updated SD card images.

uh ok.. is there a step-by-step guide on how to re-flash? mine is not bricked, but it keeps disconnecting from the pool giving me the "There is a problem fetching system stats (Internal error)" error.

Hi, I'm new to the Apollo BTC miner and ubuntu in general. I've been reading through the thread and found some of the similar issues I was having like web ui not showing, random disconnects from pool, or rather "there is a problem fetching stats, internal error" and then it just stops mining.

In some cases there is being referred to an upcoming update or reinstalling the whole thing. For both I am not sure how this will work or how to do go about it.

- Will the update be a downloadable software update, and if so where can I do that? does it work like android and just be able to update straight from ubuntu and where can I check my current version?

- And is there a manual on how to reinstall the image. does it have to be downloaded from u buntu itself, or can i create a stick straight from my windows machine? It it even needed to reinstall completely?
