_As a disclaimer please always make sure you have secured your 24 word seed phrase and backed up your funds prior to deleting any data on your storage drive, SSD/HDD_

This error is the result of a failing read/write issue with the installed drive, it can also be caused by a failing storage device or a storage device that has not been formatted correctly in ext4, has become corrupted, or had data on it prior to installation.

The most reliable fix for this issue if you are on the Rasperry Pi 4 platform is to reflash your MicroSD card.

For reference, reflashing will not result in any data loss because all user data is stored on your external storage drive (SSD or HDD). To reflash your MicroSD card, follow the steps on our website to [“Install on a Rasberry Pi 4”](https://umbrel.com/#start)

If it is your first time setting up Umbrel, and you don’t have any data on it yet please try reformatting your storage device again and make sure all partitions are completely clear- this is also a common cause if you already had a prior installation or any data on your drive and are trying to setup like new once more. You can delete all partitions and format in any default format file type, upon a successful Umbrel installation- during the Umbrel setup it will then automatically format again in the correct ext4.

It looks like you haven’t flashed since v0.3.9 and thanks for being a legacy user!

Steps to SSH can be found in our [FAQ here](http://community.umbrel.com/t/official-umbrel-troubleshooting-guide-and-faq/9873) under _How to SSH into Umbrel on a Raspberry Pi_

Thank you! The reflashing worked well. Only my Bitcoin & Lightning node is still in startup mode. Can this take more time than usual?

I had the exact same problem here: [System service failed](http://community.umbrel.com/t/system-service-failed/12340/2)

Still haven’t solved the problem, so my node is down and I can’t watch the mempool locally ☹

Still hoping somebody notices this issue, I suspect we’re not the only ones.

Hey @amadeus as the steps in my [last post](http://community.umbrel.com/t/error-system-service-failed-no-restart/12477/2) worked for @Flolucious can you run through them? I know it may seem redundant but it may take multiple reflashing, if you can SSH - try SSHing and running command: `sudo shutdown`

Then reflash MicroSD card, then plug everything back in to your Raspberry Pi 4 and the power last - let me know if the error on the dashboard changes - and if possible it may be worth trying another MicroSD card if available.

@Flolucious can you share a debug log now? You can attach it to a post here after clicking this icon  
 ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/getumbrel/original/2X/5/5fa73398e4367edc52548bee9d6b8ddedbe4fe24.png) and can generate it by going to your System page \> Troubleshoot \> Start

If for some reason you can’t generate it through the dashboard follow the steps on Generating Troubleshooting Logs here in the [FAQ](http://community.umbrel.com/t/official-umbrel-troubleshooting-guide-and-faq/9873)

You basically run this command: `sudo ~/umbrel/scripts/debug`

Then can paste the output to a text file and attach it or paste it somewhere like [pastebin.com](http://pastebin.com) and share the link from there

This will likely let us know why they Bitcoin Node is not loading.

Let me know if you have any questions

If you check your debug logs you have the following error:  
“Error: Failed loading settings file:  
bitcoind\_1 | - Unable to parse settings file /data/.bitcoin/settings.json”

To resolve, first connect to your Umbrel device by following the instructions in _How to SSH into Umbrel on a Raspberry Pi_ or by accessing a terminal on your Linux machine

This command is the quickest way to resolve the error, by deleting the file first:

`rm ~umbrel/app-data/bitcoin/data/bitcoin/settings.json`

Then you should restart Bitcoin:  
`~/umbrel/scripts/app restart bitcoin`

If for any reason when attempting to delete the file you face a permission or other errors that prevent you from doing so, we can also edit the file with this command:

`sudo nano umbrel/app-data/bitcoin/data/bitcoin/settings.json`

Then it will take you to a blank file and just type and add two lines like this, with the two curly braces

```
{
}

```

then hit CTRL+X to exit, Y to save, and enter to continue.

After completing the edit don’t forget the last step of restarting Bitcoin (you can also do this from the UI by going to Advanced Settings, scrolling down and clicking "Save and Restart Node):  
`~/umbrel/scripts/app restart bitcoin`

Upon restarting wait ~5 minutes and this will resolve the error with the settings.json file.

Re-flashing a second time didn’t solve the problem, but I did run the debug log and discovered a similar problem with the settings.json. I followed the instructions you gave Flolucious and we’re back in business. Thanks!
