Olares One initial setup fails at 9%
Olares One fails during the initial setup process with the installation stopping at around 9% and prompting you to uninstall or reinstall.
During startup, the system performs an asynchronous NTP time synchronization before issuing security certificates. While this usually completes instantly, occasional delays can cause a certificate to be issued with a future timestamp. This is especially common if the device has not yet updated from its default shipped timezone of UTC+8, finally causing the activation to fail.
Workaround
Uninstall the incomplete installation and reactivate the device.
Step 1: Attempt SSH connection
Try this method first if you do not already have a monitor and keyboard connected to your Olares device.

<local_ip_address>with the above local IP address, and then press Enter:bashssh olares@<local_ip_address>When prompted, type the default SSH password

Step 2: Log in locally

To ensure accurate time synchronization, let the device remain powered on for a few minutes before reinstalling, allowing it to automatically calibrate its internal time.
