What step am I missing to initialize the S3 bucket for the meta-node?

I'm trying to start up the meta-node against a new S3 bucket, but encountering an error related to missing checkpoints in the object store. I have provided configurations and cleaned up etcd. What other step am I missing to initialize the bucket properly?

Make sure to wipe out etcd before each iteration to avoid issues with missing checkpoints.
Check the hummock_init_flag in ETCD; if it's true, the system assumes it's existent and tries to read checkpoints from the state store to resume operations. If checkpoints are missing in S3, it can lead to errors like the one presented.
Ensure that the S3 bucket is properly set up and accessible by the meta-node for storing checkpoints.
