Has anyone here setup a node using an external SSD drive on Linux/Ubuntu? For 😊 me reason I'm struggling with it. The "app" only wants to run core on the internal drive won't come up with the option of the external drive. I've formatted it, followed some terminal instructions, etc.... Who's got the info for me to conquer this quest?

set your datadir to a directory thats mounted to the external drive. this can be set through configuration file (bitcoin.conf) or whenever you start up bitcoind

I had to write some information to the (bitcoin.conf) file like rpcallow and rpcstrongpass and an ip (maybe 🤔 need to switch something there)
