I recently moved the Bitcoin blockchain off my little boot SSD because it was taking too much space. After, I finally upgraded to .9. I told it to use the Bitcoin data folder on the non-boot drive, and it seems okay with this, except Armory's "databases" folder is >16GB large. Is there a way to move this to the non-SSD? (preferably with Armory recognizing it instead of rebuilding that folder... Wink)

Use the datadir switch:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Armory-testing\ArmoryQt.exe" --satoshi-datadir=I:\bitcoin --datadir=I:\armory
Thanks!

Can we expect reply from anyone involved in the project here ?
FYI most of the Armory team was in Las Vegas exhibiting at the conference. It will probably take them a few days to catch up.

Did not use Armory since almost a year. Changed nothing.

But today I had a COMPLETE Computer CRASH
after clicking the upper right Help(?)-Button in Armory window "RECEIVE Bitcoins"
"Synchronizing" and "Scanning" was completed before.

Nothing worked. All dead.
Had to KILL my pc by BRUTAL FORCE and much trouble to reboot and get my system running again.
Lost different not yet saved datas.

NO Message that 0.90/0.91? seems to be available now.
0.90 not even mentioned in bitcoinarmory.com downloads

3. Never even tried the strange button "Revert All Settings"

Are you using OSX?

No, win 7

.9 download link should show up right here:
I don't have any help to offer if upgrade doesn't work, though. Sorry.

I have a noob question.  How do I install offline armoury onto a linux laptop?  I bought this to use as an offline wallet:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B001IBHVCA/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It says it comes with Linux installed (I can't actually tell if it does as I've no idea what Linux looks like, but I'm presuming it does).  I'm used to using a Mac and have never used Linux.  I don't have a USB stick but I've got an external HD.  I downloaded the Armoury client on my macbook and dragged it onto my External HD.  I unplugged the external HD and plugged it into the Linux laptop.  Nothing happens.  There's no 'desktop' on the laptop for files to appear.  It doesn't seem to recognise the external HD at all.  What do I do?  How do I upload and install the armoury files?

Thanks!  All help much appreciated! Smiley

That comes with Xandros Linux, which I've never used.  You should be able to compile armory, but it's not going to be easy.  It might be easier to install xubuntu instead if that's possible.

Just installed Version 0.90-beta 64bit  on a aspire one (only 512mb of ram) running ubuntu 13.10.
Can I use the aspire one for the years to come as an offline wallet without having to change it ?

Is the deb verification as it should be ?

Processing armory_0.90-beta_12.04_i386.deb...

Thanks in advance !

should i install the new QT client (released today i think), so the new block limit and transaction fees will be updated?
or will this not yet work with Armoury 0.9? (on windows 7)

Thanks

I installed .9, seems to work fun but my windows task bar and desktop icons lost the armory logo and are just the generic windows *.exe logo.

I use an old XP netbook for signing offline transactions. Do I also have to update the netbook, if i update the desktop armory (desktop PC is running Windows 7)? I think I've read that the 0.9 is not compatible with XP.

0.90 working great.  Very fast start/restart.  WAY less RAM.  Very happy, thanks! 

I recommend this software at meetups.  Thanks again!

I updated to 0.9 too.
Went smoothly, via git update, no additional work necessary at all.
First start took a while to create the new database, now it is awesome fast on every start!

Great job, thank you for such a powerful and important piece of beautiful software, Alan and Goatpig!

Come on guys, they need a few positive feedback too from time to time, right?
is 0.9 stable? i didnt try it (yet)
