Rasp Pi 4
SSD
Ethernet
I’ve been having issues with my router and it shut down unexpectedly, which affected the Umbrel and it shut down.
I reflashed the latest version of umbrel (v0.4.15) - I have done this several times in the past and it always worked fine with Umbrel back up and running very quickly. However this time it didn’t work and I just keep getting an error message.
I decided to reformat the SD card and try again but I get the same result.
Awesome, thank you so much N080dy 
I bought a brand new SD card, reflashed it but no response when I fired up the RaspPi.
I have no idea how to ssh, I tried following the commands in a guide I found (Darthcoin)
ssh umbrel@umbrel.local
on my Mac terminal app but it didn’t seem to do anything.
Is my rasp Pi fried? Any ideas?
So you could login through SSH or not?
Maybe instead of umbrel.local use node IP
I could not get in through SSH.
Using IP helped bring up the Error: System service failed message, which I hadn’t been getting through umbrel.local
At least I can shut it down correctly from there.
Please talk me through any steps I could take with SSH. I know nothing about coding, at the moment my terminal screen (mac) shows ~ %
SSH is just a terminal where you can interact with your node through command lines. That’s all.
So once you open a terminal on your computer and enter:
ssh -t umbrel@umbrel.local
Instead of umbrel.local also you can use the local IP of your node.
The password is your personal Umbrel login password. But you have to type it in blank (you will not see what you type) and press ENTER.
After that you start using the debug commands described in the troubleshooting manual for what you need.
thanks a lot. I was able to SSH in and I ran the debug command. However it’s too many characters to post here.
I have posted the start of it below

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?
There are a lot of lines like the following

But these windows only allow 30000 characters or something, this script was over 80000
OK seems that some docker packages are missing.
Reflash the mSD card with the latest version 0.4.16 or even change that mSD card, maybe is damaged.
OK, will do. The SD card was new before last reflash 0.4.15 two days ago
Will try again with v.16
Thanks
Unfortunately reflashing 0.4.16 didn’t work, here’s the latest debug script:

I think the answer is there: something wrong with that mSD card.
Logs simply say many times SSD disk is full, but people don´t care logs… 
so a 64GB mSD should solve the problem?
Look’s like the current one is corrupted or full or for whatever reason is not working as it should. If you have another (32GB is enough, 64GB maybe better) one try with a fresh umbrel install and follow the steps to restore your node.
It’s always good to have a spare mSD ready to replace. Those little fuckers broke very easy.
I can´t stop laughing. People don´t know what is a SSD…
