Gridcoin Leisure Update 3.7.1.0 Released

in gridcoin •  7 years ago  (edited)

I have Gridcoin Wallet (3.6.3) on one computer with Linux Mint. But since I have on another computer Linux Manjaro, and I already installed version 3.7.1 on it, (but didn't start/run it yet) what would be best/simplest way to move it from first computer Mint to second computer Manjaro? I'm using gui version: gridcoinresearch-qt

I did a backup on Mint. (copied and saved these two files: wallet.dat and gridcoinreserch.conf)

What do I need to do next? Can I just copy database files from first computer to second one or do I need to go through two days of downloading again? If I can just copy files, which ones? The biggest one is: blk0001.dat. Is this one enough or do I need to copy some other files too, besides the two I already mentioned above?

Sorry, doing this for the first time and I'm not that good at Linux either

To be on the safe side, I would copy the entire block folder over to the new system. I believe there is actually a snapshot somewhere that would alleviate some of the time on downloading the entire block chain again but I cannot remember where I saw it and I believe the one I saw was for Windows and not Linux.
