FutureBit Apollo II BTC miner arrived today

So far it is a brick.

Does not load the OS, just runs the fan at the highest level.

Sigh.

I don’t think so, but so far this looks like a system no normie could ever run

Good News. It was a corrupt SD card - I have re-flashed and it is running right now. Exciting stuff!
