Using a brand new raspberry pi + new 1TB Samsung hard drive.
It did lose power 10+ times during the syncing process…
Try start9 embassy DIY
I will do that but want to identify what went wrong with this umbrel node process. Shit just isn’t working.
There could be so many things wrong, it sometimes takes more than s few try to get it right. Took a month to synchronize the chain is definitely not fun, it should really take much less time. I heard someone did the start9 embassy for only 2 days. I’m trying that next week. They also got lots of cool apps for bitcoin even others but that may require more hard drive space unless you run pruned node
