Utilizing Bitcoin core 25.1 on Raspberry Pi. Have .bitcoin dir on exterior drive.
Bitcoin-25.1 bundle after unarchiving got here with bin folder containing Bitcoin-QT and Bitcoind binary information. Bitcoin.conf file lived within the root dir of this folder.
I specified .bitcoin dir on exterior drive for Bitcoin-Qt the primary time it began up and since then it know the place it’s.
Nonetheless every time I begin Bitcoind it makes .bitcoin dir on SD drive irrespective of how or the place I put bitcoin.conf file for it to learn from.
I exploit Bitcoin-Qt for enjoying round. Predominant work is finished by Bitcoind. I anticipate each studying the identical bitcoin.conf file, but it surely’s not taking place. Additionally, Bitcoin-QT retains crashing its QT half as I exploit KVM change to change HDMI.
My quesions are:
- The place Bitcoin-Qt is de facto protecting it is personal conf file remembering the place .bitcoin dir is as I transfer bitcoin.conf round? I can delete bitcoin.conf from the pc and it will nonetheless discover .bitcoin dir on exterior drive appropriately.
- The best way to make Bitcoind use exterior drive? Making an attempt to make the most of .bitcoin dir it’s creating each time on SD drive. I copied all contents of wholesome knowledge dir of the exterior drive besides blocks dir and made bitcoin.conf pointing to blocksdir on exterior drive. However with no success.
Any ideas could be appreciated!
