¶ First Boot
NOTICE: Must plug Ethernet cable in first - before powering on!

Let's start.
- Note down your Root user credentials and be sure to keep these somewhere safe.
- Next set your user password which will be used to log into RoninUI.
- Use a strong alphanumeric password (numbers 0-9 and letters A-Z capital/lowercase)
- Do not use special characters (@,#,&,?, etc)
- Now wait for the initialization to complete. This takes approximately 45 minutes.
- Following initialization, you can click through to your RoninUI dashboard.
TIP: Your node will not be functional until the initial blockchain download and indexer compaction has finished.
NOTICE: Do not force restart your node or cut power as this can cause issues!
NOTICE: Please follow the MicroSD Card Troubleshooting Section if you need to reflash your node!
¶ SSH Access
After you create a password you can SSH into the device. See the RoninCLI Section of this wiki for more command line interface information.
